5. Considering the nature of the allegation, the relationship and the compromise between the parties, this Court is of the view that no useful purpose would be served by keeping the impugned FIR pending investigation. Accordingly, the impugned FIR is quashed and the Criminal Original Petition stands allowed. The joint compromise memo dated 23.04.2025, shall form part and parcel of the order. The petitioners shall jointly pay a cost of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand only) to the credit of the Mediation and Conciliation Centre attached to this Court and file a photocopy of the receipt along with a memo reporting compliance in the Registry.
