HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE A.K. PATHAK

O R D E R

% 08.10.2018 Respondent no.2 is present in Court along with her counsel and accepts notice. She has been identified by Inspector Gursewak Singh of police station Tilak Nagar.

Respondent no.2 submits that she has settled the matter with petitioner no. 1 of her own free will and without any undue force, pressure or coercion before Family Courts (West), Tis Hazari Courts, Delhi on 03/04/2018. Her marriage with petitioner no.1 has already been dissolved by a decree of divorce by mutual consent dated 06/07/2018 passed by the Family Courts, West District, Tis Hazari Courts, Delhi. She further submits that she has no objection in case FIR No.272/2015 under Sections 498A/406/34 IPC registered at

police station Tilak Nagar and the consequent proceedings are quashed against the petitioner no.1 and his relatives, that is, petitioner nos.2 and 3. Affidavit of respondent no.2 to this effect, is on record. Keeping in mind the settlement arrived at between the petitioner no.1 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 OCTOBER 08, 2018 sm
