The complainant/Respondent No. 2 Ms. Sudesh Devi and respondent No.2 Sh. Ram Narayan, who are wife and husband are present in Court and CRL.M.C. 1512/2016

There is no legal impediment in quashing the FIR in question.

Consequently, FIR No. 639/2014 under Sections 452/323/509/506/34 IPC registered at PS Vasant Kunj South, Delhi and proceedings pursuant thereto are hereby quashed, subject to the petitioners depositing a sum of `20,000/- each with the Juvenile Justice Fund maintained by the Registrar General of this Court within two weeks.
