% 31.07.2017 This is a petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. for quashing of FIR No.394/2013, under Sections 308/34 IPC, registered at Police Station-Lajpat Nagar, Delhi and all proceedings emanating therefrom. Counsel for the petitioners submits that presently the petitioners and the respondent Nos.2 and 3 are relatives and due to some misunderstanding arisen between the parties, a quarrel had taken place resulting into registration of aforesaid FIR. 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 vide compromise deed dated 26.07.2017 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. Respondent No.2, Mr.Ajay Kumar Pundir and respondent No.3, Ms.Neelam Pundir are present in Court today and have been identified by the Investigating Officer SI Amit Dutt, PS-Lajpat Nagar, Delhi. The respondent Nos.2 and 3 admit that they have settled the matter amicably with the petitioners vide compromise deed dated 26.07.2017. They further submit that the settlement/compromise has taken place voluntarily, without any force, pressure or coercion. They submit that nothing remains to be adjudicated further between them and they have 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 close relatives and nothing remains to be adjudicated further between them, to promote peace in the family and for maintaining good relationship between the parties, I deem it appropriate to quash the FIR and all its subsequent proceedings. Consequently, FIR No.394/2013, under Sections 308/34 IPC, registered at Police Station-Lajpat Nagar, 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
