was passed;
“Mr. Kinariwala, the learned counsel appearing for the
respondent No.2 submitted that even as on date, his
client is in contact with her former husband. He pointed
out that although there has been a customary divorce,
yet the respondent No.2 has feelings for the respondent
No.2-wife. However, according to Mr. Kinariwala, it is the
applicants herein, i.e., the father-in-law, mother-in-law,
sister-in-law and the husband of the sister-in-law, who
are creating trouble for the respondent No.2. It is pointed
out that the former husband is ready and willing to
resettle once again with the respondent No.2, but he is
not being permitted to do so by the applicants herein.
I should know the root cause of all the problems.

directed to personally remain present before this Court
on 06.12.2017. The respondent No.2-Archanaba W/o.

The learned counsel appearing for the respective parties
shall inform about this order to their respective clients.
Stand over to 06.12.2017.”
4. With the intervention of this Court, there has been a
happy amicable settlement between the husband and wife.

assures that he would discharge all his marital obligations as a
husband and will take care of his wife. The respondent No.2
also assures this Court that she would discharge all her marital
obligations as a wife and would live a happy marital and
peaceful life. As the parties have resolved the matter, there
should not be any difficulty in quashing the first information
report.

allowed. The first information report being C.R.No.I-14 of
2015 registered with the Unava Police Station, District:
