% 17.08.2018 Notice.

Learned APP accepts notice for respondent no. 1.

Respondent no.2 is present in Court along with his counsel and accepts notice. He has been identified by SI Naveen of police station Subzi Mandi. Respondent no.2 submits that he has settled the matter with the petitioner of his own free will and without any undue force, pressure or coercion, vide Compromise Deed dated 31.08.2017. Respondent no. 2 submits that he has already received settled amount of ₹50,000/- from the petitioner and he has no objection in case FIR No.56/2010, under Section

326 IPC, PS-Subzi Mandi and the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed against the petitioner. Keeping in mind the settlement arrived at between the petitioner and respondent no. 2 voluntarily, in my view, no fruitful purpose would be served to keep the criminal proceedings pending. Accordingly, in the interest of justice, aforesaid FIR and the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

Petition is disposed of in the above terms. Miscellaneous application is disposed of as infructuous.

Dasti.
