% 18.07.2016 By this petition the petitioner seeks quashing of FIR No. 387/2013 under Sections 354B IPC registered at PS Badarpur, Delhi on the complaint of Respondent No.2 on the ground that the parties have settled the matter. Learned APP for the State on instructions from the Investigating Officer states that besides the petitioner there is no other accused and besides the respondent No.2 there is no other complainant or victim in the present FIR.

The complainant/Respondent No. 2 Ms. Jyoti who is present in Court and is identified by the learned counsel and the Investigating Officer states CRL.M.C. 1722/2016

that she has settled the matter with the petitioner and in terms of the settlement between the parties, she does not want to pursue the abovementioned FIR and the proceedings pursuant thereto. Petitioner, who is also present in Court and is identified by the learned counsel states that he will abide by the terms of settlement. In view of the fact that the parties have amicably resolved their differences of their own free will, volition and without any coercion and no useful purpose will be served in continuance of the proceedings, rather the same would create further acrimony between them, it would be in the interest of justice to quash the abovementioned FIR and the proceedings pursuant thereto. There is no legal impediment in quashing the FIR in question.

Consequently, FIR No. 387/2013 under Sections 354B IPC registered at PS Badarpur, Delhi and proceedings pursuant thereto are hereby quashed, subject to the petitioner depositing a sum of `15,000/- with the Delhi High Court Staff Welfare Fund within two weeks.

Parties have signed this order sheet in acknowledgment of their statements made before this Court.
