This petition has been filed to seek the quashing of FIR No.617/2014 under Section 406/498A/34 IPC registered at PS Kanjhawla, Delhi on the compliant of respondent No.2. The petitioner and respondent No.2 were married on 06.12.2011. However, differences arose between the parties which led to the filing of the aforesaid FIR. The parties have arrived at mutual settlement on 10.12.2015 whereunder they agreed to part ways by obtaining divorce by mutual consent. Under the settlement, the petitioner agreed to make payment of Rs.3 lacs in full and final settlement of all her claims.
