CRL.M.C. 5043/2015 & Crl. MA 18152/2015 (stay) This is a petition u/s 482 Cr.P.C. moved by the petitioner for quashing of FIR No.28/2015 registered at Police Station CR Park, New Delhi under Sections 354(A)(1)/323/509 IPC and consequent proceedings emanating therefrom on the ground that the parties have compromised the matter. The respondent No.2/complainant is present in person (duly identified by the Investigating Officer) and submits that she has amicably resolved all disputes with the petitioners voluntarily without there being any threat, coercion or pressure of any sort and in view of the settlement arrived at between the parties, she does not want any action against the petitioner and does not have any objection to quashing of the instant FIR. Ms Neelam Sharma, Additional Public Prosecutor for the State submits that in view of the settlement arrived at between the parties, she has no objection to quashing of FIR.

Keeping in view the facts that the parties have compromised the matter with each other amicably and that the parties have entered into a compromise and the compromise deed has been placed on record, coupled with the fact that there are cross FIRs between

the parties, no useful purpose would be served by continuing the criminal proceedings against the petitioners, which will only be an exercise in futility and wastage of precious time of the Court.

Accordingly, the petition is allowed and the FIR No.28/2015 registered at Police Station CR Park, New Delhi under Sections 354(A)(1)/323/509 IPC and consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are hereby quashed subject to cost of Rs.15,000/- to be deposited by the petitioners with Delhi High Court Mediation & Conciliation Centre within 15 days. Receipt of deposit be placed on record. The petition stands disposed of accordingly.

A copy of this order be given dasti to counsel for the petitioner. SUNITA GUPTA, J JANUARY 15, 2016
