3. As per allegations, the petitioner was stalking the complainant for 3/4 days. The complainant called her husband on phone who came there. The husband of the complainant caught hold of the petitioner but he managed to get released and fled away.
4. On making a reference by the learned MM, Mahila Court, Saket Courts, Delhi, the parties have amicably settled their dispute in the Mediation Centre, Saket Courts, New Delhi. The petitioner has shown deep regret to the respondent no. 2 and assured her that the same shall not take place in future.

Hence, to secure ends of justice, the FIR bearing No. 948/2014, registered on 11.12.2014 with Police Station Okhla Industrial Area, Delhi, under Section 354-D IPC and proceedings arising out of the same are hereby quashed.
