% 31.07.2017 This is a petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. for quashing of FIR No.822/2014, under Sections 308/34 IPC, registered at Police StationGokulpuri, Delhi and all proceedings emanating therefrom. Counsel for the petitioners submits that presently the petitioners and the respondent No.2 are residents of same locality and due to some misunderstanding arisen between the parties, a quarrel had taken place resulting into registration of aforesaid FIR. He further submits that the family members of petitioners too got registered a cross-FIR bearing FIR No.825/2014, under Sections 323/354-B/506/34, at Police StationGokulpuri, Delhi. Counsel further submits that after the registration of the two FIRs, the near relatives and the friends intervened and the matter has been amicably settled between the parties vide compromise deed dated 10.09.2014 and nothing remains to be adjudicated further between them and

to have better relationship in near future, the present FIR, which is coming as a hurdle in their way, may be quashed.

The respondent No.2/complainant, Mr.Asif is present in Court today and has been identified by the Investigating Officer SI Rajpal Singh. The respondent No.2 admits that he has settled the matter amicably with the petitioners vide compromise deed dated 10.09.2014. He further submits that the settlement/compromise has taken place voluntarily, without any force, pressure or coercion. He submits that nothing remains to be adjudicated further between them and he has no objection if the FIR in question is quashed.

Keeping in view the above facts and circumstances, since the matter has been amicably settled between the parties who are stated to be residents of same locality and nothing remains to be adjudicated further between them, to promote peace in the neighbourhood and for maintaining good relationship between the parties, I deem it appropriate to quash the FIR and all its subsequent proceedings. Consequently, FIR No.822/2014, under Sections 308/34 IPC, registered at Police Station-Gokulpuri, Delhi and all proceedings arising therefrom are hereby quashed. The present petition is allowed and disposed of accordingly. Copy of this order be given dasti, as prayed. I.S.MEHTA, J JULY 31, 2017/sr
