Counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner and the respondent No.2 are residents of same locality and due to some misunderstanding a quarrel had taken place between them, resultantly, the complainant lodged FIR No.714/2014, under Sections 354-D/509 IPC at Police Station-Prasad Nagar, Delhi. He has further submitted that after registration of the FIR qua against the petitioner, the relatives and the friends intervened and the matter has been settled between the parties. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that all disputes have been amicably settled between the parties and nothing remains to be adjudicated upon further and submits that the FIR in question is coming as hurdle in the

way of the present petitioner. He further submits that the petitioner and the respondent No.2 want to lead peaceful life in near future and since all disputes have been settled between them, the FIR in question and all proceedings arising therefrom may be quashed. The respondent No.2/complainant, Ms.Deepa is present in Court today and has been identified by the Investigating Officer SI Narender, PSPrasad Nagar. The respondent No.2/complainant also admits that the matter has been amicably settled with the petitioner and she has no claim or grievance left against the petitioner.

She further submits that the settlement/compromise has taken place voluntarily, without any force, pressure or coercion. She further submits that she has no objection if the FIR in question is quashed.

Looking into the above facts and circumstances, since the matter has been amicably settled between the parties and nothing remains to be adjudicated further, to have peace in the life of the parties, I deem it appropriate to quash the FIR No.714/2014, under Sections 354-D/509 IPC, registered at Police Station-Prasad Nagar, Delhi, and all proceedings emanating therefrom.

The present petition is allowed and disposed of accordingly. Copy of the order be given dasti.
