2.Briefly stating the facts are that the FIR was registered on thecomplaint of respondent no.2/complainant whereby it is alleged that thefather-in-law and bother-in-law have made obscene gestures to respondentno.2.
3.Both the parties state that the registration of the FIR was on account
of some misunderstanding between the parties and the same have beensettled by way of Memorandum of Understanding dated 21.10.2024.

7.Since the parties have arrived at settlement and no disputes arepending, I am convinced that quashing of such proceedings on account ofcompromise would bring about peace and would secure the ends of justice.This court does not see any fruitful purpose if criminal proceedings arepermitted to be prosecuted any further. It is fit case for quashing. In thisview of the matter, there is no reason to continue the proceedings.
