Pursuant thereto, the present FIR against the petitioners. On 02.02.2026, the parties amicably resolved their disputes and executed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), whereby they agreed to cooperate and support each other in seeking quashing of the cross FIRs registered against them. 6. Learned APP for the State opposes the prayer for quashing of the FIR and submits that the allegations levelled in the FIR are serious in nature. He further submits that the present case arises out of cross-FIRs and, therefore, ought not to be quashed. 7. On a query made by this Court, respondent no. 2 who has been identified by the IO, has categorically stated that she has entered into a compromise vide MoU dated 02.02.2026 out of her own free will and without any pressure, coercion or threat. Therefore, she has no objection, if the present FIR is quashed. 8. In view of the above, that the parties have amicably resolved their differences out of their own free will, and without any coercion, 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. 9. Accordingly, FIR No. 006/2020 registered at Police Station Bhajanpura, Delhi, for the offences punishable under Sections 323/341/354/506/34 of the IPC along with all consequential proceedings emanating therefrom, is hereby quashed. 10.
