1. Petitioners seek quashing of FIR No.96/2024 of PS Mandawali Fazalpur for offence under Section 498A/406/34 IPC on the ground that the complainant de facto (respondent no.2 herein) has settled all matrimonial disputes with the petitioners.

2. Learned APP has taken me through the FIR which contains heinous allegations of sexual misconduct against one of the petitioners. In view thereof, learned counsel for petitioners on instructions seeks permission to withdraw this petition so that the petitioners face trial.

3. As requested, the petition is dismissed as withdrawn. But it is made clear that this withdrawal shall not be treated as merits in the prosecution case and the learned trial court shall take independent view.
