Apart from the payment of the alleged amount, it was also agreed that in case of any breach of the conditions of the settlement, the second party/complainant would be at liberty to revive the FIR. Despite such a long time being passed, the second party has not sought for reviving of the FIR, rather on the other hand has supported its quashing. 2.

Petition allowed in aforesaid terms. All pending applications, if any, stand disposed.
