3 Mr. Sandeep Kamar, ld. Adv. accepts notice on behalf of respondent No. 2.
4 With the consent of the learned counsels for the parties, the instant petition is taken up for final disposal.
5 Vide the instant petition, the petitioners have sought to quash FIR No.204/2008, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 420/468/471 Indian Penal Code, 1860 at P.S. Daryaganj, Delhi.
6 Further submits that vide MOU dated 03.12.2011, the matter has been amicably settled between the parties. Therefore, respondent No.2/ complainant is no more interested to pursue the case further.
7 Respondent No. 2 is personally present in the court today with his counsel, Mr. Sandeep Kumar, Advocate, who duly identifies him.
8 Ld. counsel for respondent No. 2 upon instructions submits that the matter has been settled and the respondent No. 2 does not want to pursue the matter and has no objection if the FIR is quashed.
9 Ld. APP for State submits that though the FIR in the matter was registered on 30.07.2008, however, the investigations in the matter are still pending and therefore, charge-sheet yet to be filed in the trial court.
10 Ld. APP for State has fairly conceded that the FIR pertains to Section 420 of Indian Penal Code, 1860, but the same is not made out in the instant case, therefore, in the interest of justice, the petition may be allowed.
