% 28.02.2017 By the present petition the petitioners seek quashing of FIR No. 269/2014 under Sections 354/506/34 IPC registered at PS Saket, Delhi on the complaint of Respondent No.2 and the proceedings pursuant thereto on the ground that the parties have settled the matter. Learned APP for the State on instructions from Investigating Officer submits that in the above-noted FIR the two petitioners are the only accused and respondent No.2 the only complainant/ victim. Respondent No. 2 is present in Court and is identified by the Investigating Officer. She states that she has settled the matter with the petitioners who has apologized to her and have assured that no such misbehaviour will take place in future. Thus she does not wish to pursue the above-noted FIR and the proceedings pursuant thereto. CRL.M.C. 2661/2016

The petitioners who are present in Court and are identified by the learned counsel affirm the statement of respondent No.2 and tendering their unqualified apology assure that no such misbehaviour will take place in future. To show remorse the petitioners also undertake to deposit cost. 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. 269/2014 under Sections 354/506/34 IPC registered at PS Saket, Delhi and proceedings pursuant thereto are hereby quashed subject to each of the petitioners depositing a sum of ₹15,000/- with the Juvenile Justice Fund maintained by the Registrar General of this Court within four weeks.

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

The petition is disposed of. Order dasti.
