% 20.12.2018 Notice.

Learned APP accepts notice for respondent no. 1.

Respondent no.2 Mr. Yogesh Kumar is present in Court along with his counsel and accepts notice. He has been identified by SI Satish of police station Mayur Vihar Phase - I.

Respondent no.2 submits that he has settled the matter with petitioners of his own free will and without any undue force, pressure or coercion, vide a Settlement-cum-Compromise Deed dated 9th October, 2018. Respondent no. 2 says that he had sustained simple injuries in the incident.

Respondent no. 2 says that he has no objection in case FIR No. 277/2011 under Sections 308/34 IPC registered at Police Station Mayur Vihar Phase-I and consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed. Affidavit of respondent no. 2 to this effect is also on record. Keeping in mind the settlement arrived at between the petitioners 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 consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

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