Manmohan, J.@mdashThe present petition has been filed u/s 482 of the Code of the Criminal Procedure for quashing of FIR No. 226/2003

registered with PS Welcome under Sections 498A, 406 and 34 IPC as well as the proceedings arising therefrom and now pending in the Court of

Smt. Anuradha Shukla, M.M. Karkardooma Courts, Delhi.

2. Briefly stated, the facts of this case are that the Petitioner was married to Zakir Hussan on 7th April, 1999. On 25th September, 2002, the

Petitioner made a complaint to the Joint Commissioner, Crime Against Women Cell, Nanak Pura, New Delhi. In pursuance to the said complaint,

the impugned FIR was registered and subsequently a charge-sheet was filed against Respondent Nos. 2 to 7.

3. However, due to the intervention of common relatives and friends in the month of April, 2004 all the disputes between the parties were amicably

resolved and in pursuance thereto the Petitioner has returned back to her matrimonial home and has been residing there since then.

4. The present petition is supported by an affidavit of the Petitioner, Ms. Zohra Praveen, who is present in Court and who has been identified by

the IO, makes a statement that she has no objection if the impugned FIR as well as the proceedings arising therefrom are quashed.

5. In my view, ends of justice would be subserved if the FIR No. 226/2003 is quashed. Accordingly, FIR No. 226/2003 registered with PS

Welcome under Sections 498A, 406 and 34 IPC as well as the proceedings arising therefrom and now pending in the Court of Smt. Anuradha

Shukla, M.M. Karkardooma Courts, Delhi, are quashed.
