% 24.08.2017 Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that his father late Sh. Mulk Raj Taneja expired on 9.1.2010 and mother Smt. Vidya Devi Taneja expired on 15.11.2007. Counsel for the petitioner further submitted that the petitioner and the respondent No.2 are the real brother and sister and due to the misunderstanding arisen between the parties an FIR No. 289/2005 under Sections 448/452/380/323/427/34 IPC, P.S. Maya Puri, Delhi was registered.

Counsel further submits that after the registration of the FIR, the near relatives and the friends intervened and the matter has been amicably settled between the parties on 9th May, 2017 before the Mediation Centre, Tis Hazari Courts, Delhi 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, Smt. Kiran Sharma is present in Court today and has been identified by the Investigating Officer. The respondent No.2 admits that the petitioner no.1 is her real brother and the misunderstanding arisen between the parties had been sorted out and the same has been settled amicably with the petitioners vide settlement agreement dated 9th May, 2017 before the Mediation Centre, Tis Hazari, Delhi.

She further submits that the settlement/compromise has taken place voluntarily, without any force, pressure or coercion. She submits that nothing remains to be adjudicated further between them and she 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 brother and sister and nothing remains to be adjudicated further between them, and for maintaining good relationship between the parties, I deem it appropriate to quash the FIR and all its subsequent proceedings.

Consequently, FIR No.289/2005, under Sections 448/452/380/323/427/34 IPC, P.S.
