O R D E R

% 05.09.2018 Petitioner and respondent no.2 are husband and wife respectively. They were married in May, 2008. A quarrel took place between them which resulted in registration of FIR No. 1642/2015 under Sections 323/342/506 IPC at police station Mehrauli.

Respondent no.2 and petitioner are still living together, inasmuch as, they have been blessed with one child after the incident. There are total four children born from the wedlock of petitioner and respondent no.2. Respondent no.2 is present in Court along with her counsel and has been identified by SI Bansi Lal of police station Mehrauli. She submits that she has settled the matter with petitioner of her own free will and without any undue force, pressure or coercion. She further submits that she has no objection in case the FIR and the consequent proceedings are

quashed.

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.

Dasti.

A.K. PATHAK, J.
