Court through the factual matrix arising out of the
present application.

amicably resolved the dispute. In support of such
submission made at the bar by the learned
advocates appearing for the respective parties, they
have placed on record affidavit of settlement duly
signed by the complainant. The complainant is
present in the Court and on inquiry, confirms the
factum of settlement.

impugned FIR is required to be quashed and set
aside.
