Counsel further submits that after the marriage misunderstanding between the parties had arisen, which resulted into the registration of aforesaid FIR. He further submits that after the registration of the FIR, the near relatives and close friends intervened and the matter has been amicably settled between the parties, which has been reduced into writing before the Court of Ms.Vandana, Ld. M.M, Mahila Court, Tis Hazari Courts, Delhi, on 21.01.2016. He further submits that their marriage has also been dissolved by mutual consent by a decree of divorce dated 10.02.2017 granted by the Principal Judge, Family

He further submits that the last instalment amounting to Rs.1,50,000/- has already been paid to respondent No.2 by way of demand draft bearing No.294715, dated 21.03.2017, amounting to Rs.1,50,000/-, drawn on Syndicate Bank and that nothing remains to be adjudicated upon further and submits that the FIR in question is coming as hurdle in the way of the present petitioners. He further submits that the petitioners and the respondent No.2 want to lead their independent and peaceful life in near future and since all disputes have been settled between them, the FIR in question and all proceedings arising therefrom may be quashed.

The respondent No.2/complainant is present in Court today and has been identified by the Investigating Officer, S.I.

The complainant also admits that the matter has been amicably settled with the petitioners and she has received the last instalment of Rs.1,50,000/- by way of aforesaid demand draft and nothing remains due against the petitioners. She further submits that she has no claim or grievance left against the petitioners. She further submits that the settlement/compromise has taken place voluntarily, without any force, pressure or coercion.

Keeping in view the facts and circumstances of the case and the fact that the matter has been amicably settled between the parties and also the marriage between the petitioner No. 1 and respondent No.2 has already been dissolved by mutual consent by a decree of divorce, it is in their interest to lead their independent and peaceful life in future. Consequently, the FIR

No.311/2013, under Sections 498-A/406/34 IPC, registered at Police Station- Khyala and all proceedings arising out of the same are hereby quashed.
