No.2 vide settlement agreements dated 27.08.2017 and 20.12.2917. 2.

Complainant / respondent No.2 is present with counsel and has been identified by him. I have enquired from the complainant if she has settled the dispute with the petitioners amicably without any fear or pressure. She has informed that all the disputes between the parties have been resolved amicably with her free consent and she has no objection to the quashing of the FIR in question. Divorce by mutual consent has already been granted.

Pursuant to the settlement, remaining amount of `3 lacs by way of demand draft bearing No.002712 dated 09.05.2018 drawn on HDFC Bank in the name of the complainant have been given to the complainant in the Court today.

The petition is supported by affidavits of the parties. Copy of settlement agreement dated 27.08.2017 and 20.12.2017 have been placed on record. Since the dispute between the parties has been settled, no useful purpose will be served to continue with the proceedings. In the interest of justice and to enable the parties to settle in life after divorce, FIR No.175/2016 under Sections 498A/406/34 IPC registered at Police Station Hari Nagar, Delhi and all the proceedings arising therefrom are quashed.
