By this petition, the petitioners seek quashing of FIR No.421/2016 under Section 323/354/354B/427/509/34 IPC registered at PS K.N.Katju Marg on the complaint of respondent No.2 and the proceedings pursuant thereto on the ground that the parties have settled the matter. 2.

Learned APP for the State on instructions submits that in the above noted FIR the three petitioners are the accused and the respondent No.2 is the only complainant/victim besides her respondent Nos.3 to 5 are the other victims. She further states that parties are neighbours and cross-cases were registered in the quarrel that ensued between the parties. 3.

Respondent Nos.2 to 5 are present in Court and are identified by the CRL.M.C. 4308/2018

learned counsel and the Investigating Officer. They state that they have settled the matter with the petitioners as the petitioners are their neighbours and they do not wish to pursue the abovementioned FIR and the proceedings pursuant thereto. They further state that the quarrel between the parties ensued on a issue relating to parking.

4.

Petitioners who are present in Court and are identified by the learned counsel affirm the statement of respondent Nos.2 to 5. They assure that no such misbehaviour will take place in future and to show remorse undertake to deposit cost.

There is no legal impediment in quashing the FIR in question.
