Briefly stated, facts of the present case are that on 20.10.2021, an altercation has taken place between the petitioners and respondent no. 2 over choice of music. It is stated that in the said altercation, the respondent no. 2 sustained head injuries. On the complaint of respondent no. 2, the present FIR was registered against the petitioners under the relevant sections. It is stated that both the parties have amicably settled the present matter vide Settlement Deed dated 20.08.2025, entered between them. 6. On a query made by this Court, respondent no.2 who has been identified by the concerned IO, has categorically stated that he has entered into compromise out of his own free will and without any pressure, coercion or threat. It is also stated by respondent no. 2 that the entire dispute has been amicably settled between the parties. Respondent no. 2 further stated he has no objection if the present FIR is quashed. 7. In view of the above fact that the parties have amicably resolved their differences of their own free will, without any coercion and the fact that the petitioners have no previous involvement and the injuries sustained by the respondent no. 2 was minor, and therefore, no useful purpose will be served by continuing the proceedings, rather the same would create further acrimony between them. It would thus be in interest of justice to quash the abovementioned FIR and the proceedings pursuant thereto. There is no legal impediment in quashing the FIR in question. 8. Accordingly, FIR bearing no. 505/2021, registered at Police Station Chhawla, New Delhi for the commission of offences punishable under Sections 307/34 of IPC and all consequential proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed. 9.
