CRL.M.C. 49/2016
This is a joint petition filed by the petitioner and respondent no.2 seeking quashing of FIR No.2/2013 registered under Section 354 of the IPC at police station Sonia Vihar on the complaint of respondent no.2. Complainant/respondent no.2 is present in person in Court. Presence of the complainant has been identified by the Investigating officer.
Contents of the FIR have been perused.
It is stated that the FIR has been registered due to misunderstanding and misapprehension and now with the intervention
of the elders of the society the parties have settled their disputes and they have no grievance or complaint left against one another. They accordingly pray that the present FIR be quashed.
Learned APP for the State submits that if at all the present FIR is permitted to be quashed it should be quashed subject to costs as the State machinery has been put in to motion; charge sheet has been filed and the State has incurred expenses.
Accordingly, FIR No.2/2013 registered under Section 354 of the IPC at police station Sonia Vihar as also the proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed subject to payment of Rs.25000/- to be deposited by the petitioner with the Delhi High Court Legal Services Committee.
Petition disposed of.
