been identified by the Investigating Officer. 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 `50,000/- by way of demand draft bearing No.363030 dated 23.05..2018 drawn on State Bank of India in the name of the complainant has been given to her today in the Court today.

The petition is supported by affidavits of the parties. Settlement order dated 17.08.2017 before Counselling Cell, South Family Court, Saket Court Complex, New Delhi between the parties is 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.0001/2017 under Sections 406/498A/34 IPC registered at Police Station Mehrauli, South Delhi and all the proceedings arising therefrom are quashed.
