He further submits that after the registration of the FIR, the near relatives and close friends intervened and the matter has been amicably settled between the parties. The petitioner No.1 further submits that the respondent No.2 is living with him alongwith children and they are leading a happy and peaceful married life. The petitioner No.1 further submits that the matter has been amicably resolved between the parties and nothing further remains to be adjudicated between the parties, however, the present FIR is coming as hurdle in the peaceful life of both the parties and prays that the FIR in question and all proceedings arising therefrom may be quashed. The respondent No.2/complainant, Mrs.

Sarita is present in Court today and has been identified by the Investigating Officer, SI Ranjit P.S-Neb Sarai. The complainant admits that the matter has been amicably settled with the petitioners and she has joined her husband/petitioner No.1 with her children.

She further submits that the said settlement arrived at with the petitioner is voluntary and without any force, pressure or coercion and she does not want any further action qua against her husband and has no objection, if the FIR in question is quashed.

Keeping in view the facts and circumstances of the case and the fact that the matter has been amicably settled between the parties and in terms of the said settlement, the respondent No.2/complainant has joined her matrimonial home along with her children and now living with the petitioner No.1 happily and peacefully and nothing further remains to be adjudicated between them, to have peace in the life of the parties and to

meet the ends of justice, I deem it appropriate to quash the aforesaid FIR and all subsequent proceedings arising out of the same. Consequently, FIR No.548/2014, under Sections 498-A/354/506/34 IPC, registered at Police Station-Neb Sarai, Delhi and all subsequent proceedings arising therefrom are hereby quashed.
