% 31.08.2016 (1) Present petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been preferred by the petitioners for quashing of FIR No.41/2012 under Sections 498A/406/34 IPC registered at Police Station Najafgarh. It is stated that the matter has been settled with the complainant/respondent No.2 amicably before Mediation Centre, Dwarka on 27.11.2013. (2) Respondent No.2-complainant is present before the Court along with her counsel. The Investigating Officer has identified her. I have enquired from the complainant whether the matter has been settled with the petitioners amicably without fear and pressure. She has informed that the matter has been settled without any fear or pressure and she has no objection to the quashing of the FIR. (3) The petition is supported by the affidavits of the parties. Copy

of settlement deed dated 27.11.2013 is on record. (4) Since the complainant/Respondent No.2 has voluntarily settled the dispute with the petitioners, no useful purpose will be served to continue with the proceedings. In the interest of justice and to put an end to the litigation, FIR No.41/2012 under Sections 498A/406/34 IPC registered at Police Station Najafgarh and all the proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

(5) The petitioners are, however, burdened with costs of Rs.10,000/- to be deposited with Prime Minister Relief Fund within two weeks. The Registry shall ensure the compliance of the order. (6) The petition is disposed of accordingly.
