6. The respondent no.2 lodged a complaint with CAW Cell which
culminated into said FIR against the petitioners.

7. The respondent No.2 preferred a petition under Section 12 of The
Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 (hereinafter
referred to as the ‘DV Act’) against the petitioners in the court of
learned MM, Mahila Court, Rohini Courts, Delhi. She also filed a
petition u/s 125 of Cr.P.C. for maintenance against the petitioner No.1
before the learned Principal Judge, Family Courts, Rohini, Delhi.

8. The petitioner no.1 and respondent no.2 had resolved and settled all
their disputes in terms of Memorandum of Understanding dated 10th
July, 2016. By this settlement, the petitioner no. 1 and the respondent

a total sum of Rs.11,00,000/- to the respondent no. 2 in full and final
settlement of her all claims including the maintenance and cost of
dowry/stridhan articles.

parties in the first motion petition. Further, a sum of Rs.5,00,000/-

Rs.5,00,000/- vide DD No.077875 dated 14.09.2017 issued by Indian
Overseas Bank, in favour of respondent No.2, which has been
accepted by her. She submits that she has received the entire
settlement amount from the petitioner No.1. She submits that she
does not want to pursue the said FIR. She submits that the said FIR
may be quashed.

12. Learned ASC through IO submits that the charge sheet has so far not
been filed.

them against each other. Since the parties have amicably settled all

the said FIR. Hence, to secure ends of justice, the FIR bearing
No.0197/2016, registered on 02.04.2016 with Police Station
Mahendra Park, North West District, Delhi, under Sections

hereby quashed.
