(2) Respondent No.2-complainant is present before the Court along with her counsel. The Investigating Officer present in the court has identified her. 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.

Pursuant to the settlement, she has got the settled amount. Divorce by mutual consent has been granted.

(3) The petition is supported by the affidavits of the parties. Order dated 16.02.2015 of Family Court-01, South District, Saket, recording settlement between 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.527/2003 under Sections 498-A/406/34 IPC and Section 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961 registered at Police Station Hazrat Nizamuddin and all the proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

(6) The petition is disposed of accordingly.
