% 12.04.2017 (1) Present petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been preferred by the petitioners for quashing of FIR No.634/2015 under Sections 498-A/406 IPC registered at Police Station Hazrat Nizamuddin. It is stated that the matter has been settled with the complainant/victim amicably before Mediation Centre, Saket Courts, New Delhi. (2) Respondent No.2-complainant is present before the Court along with her counsel. The Investigating Officer present in the court has W.P.(CRL) 1044/2017

I have enquired from the complainant whether the matter has been settled with the petitioners amicably without fear and pressure. She has informed that the matter has been settled without any fear or pressure and she has no objection to the quashing of the FIR.

It is informed that pursuant to the settlement demand draft bearing No.512418 dated 27.2.2017 for the sum of `3,00,000/- drawn on Punjab National Bank has been handed over to the complainant today in the court. Divorce by mutual consent has been granted. (3) The petition is supported by the affidavits of the parties. Settlement/Compromise deed dated 16.07.2016 signed by the parties is on record.

(4) Since the complainant/Respondent No.2 has voluntarily settled the dispute with the petitioners, no useful purpose will be served to continue with the proceedings. In the interest of justice and to put an end to the litigation and to enable the parties to settle in life after divorce, FIR No.634/2015 under Sections 498-A/406 IPC registered at Police Station Hazrat Nizamuddin and all the proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

(5) The petition and all pending application(s) stand disposed of accordingly.
