% 01.02.2017 (1) Present petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been preferred by the petitioner for quashing of FIR No.502/1999 under Sections 498A/406/506 IPC registered at Police Station Civil Lines. It is stated that the matter has been settled with the complainant/respondent No.2 amicably before this Court.

(2) Respondent No.2-complainant is present before the Court and is identified by the Investigating Officer. I have enquired from the complainant whether the matter has been settled with the petitioner amicably without fear and pressure. She has informed that the matter CRL.M.C. 4851/2016

has been settled without any fear or pressure and she has no objection to the quashing of the FIR.

Pursuant to the settlement, remaining amount of `5,00,000/- has been paid to the complainant today in court by way of demand draft bearing No.716014 drawn on Punjab National Bank for the sum of `2,00,000/- and cheque bearing No.914145 dated 23.12.2016 drawn on State Bank of India for the sum of `3,00,000/-. Divorce by mutual consent has been granted. (3) The petition is supported by the affidavits of the parties. Order dated 17.11.2015 of this Court, recording settlement between the parties is on record.

(4) Since the complainant/Respondent No.2 has voluntarily settled the dispute with the petitioner, 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.502/1999 under Sections 498A/406/506 IPC registered at Police Station Civil Lines and all the proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

(5) The petition and all pending application(s) stand disposed of accordingly.
