HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE A.K. PATHAK

O R D E R

% 28.08.2018 Respondent no. 2 Geeta is present in Court along with her counsel and has been identified by SI Vipin Kumar of police station Kalyanpuri. Respondent no. 2 submits that she has settled the matter with the petitioner no. 1 of her own free will and without any undue force, pressure or coercion before the Delhi Mediation Centre, Karkardooma Courts, Delhi on 28th July, 2017. Respondent no. 2 says that she has received the entire settled amount of ₹15,000/- from the petitioners and she has no objection in case FIR no. 4/2013 under Sections 354/323/34 IPC registered at Police Station

Kalyanpuri and consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed against the petitioner no. 1 and his wife, that is, petitioner no. 2. Keeping in mind the settlement arrived at between the petitioners and respondent no. 2 voluntarily, in my view, no fruitful purpose would be served to keep the criminal proceedings pending. Accordingly, in the interest of justice, aforesaid FIR and consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

Petition is disposed of in the above terms. Dasti. A.K. PATHAK, J.
