HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE A.K. PATHAK

% 31.05.2018 Notice.

Learned APP accepts notice for respondent no. 1.

Respondent no.2 Ms. Komal Bhola is present in Court along with her counsel and accepts notice. She has been identified by ASI Rajender Singh of police station Tilak Nagar.

Respondent no.2 submits that she has settled the matter with the petitioners of her own free will and without any undue force, pressure or coercion, vide a Memorandum of Understanding dated 26th March, 2018. Respondent no. 2 says that she has no objection in case FIR No. 1203/2015

under Sections 354-A/509/34 IPC registered at Police Station Tilak Nagar and the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

Affidavit of respondent no. 2 to this effect is also on record at pages 18-19. Keeping in mind the settlement arrived at between the petitioner 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 the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

Petition is disposed of in the above terms. Miscellaneous applications are disposed of as infructuous. Dasti.

A.K. PATHAK, J.
