"Husband Naveen Sharma and wife Meenal are present in person. They both have minor son Pranav.
In the present Habeas Corpus Petition, the husband has claimed custody of Pranav on the basis of orders dated 02.04.2015 and 16.04.2015 passed by the Superior Court of Justice, Family Court, Hamilton, Ontario in Court File No.3173-14. The wife is presently residing in Ajmer along with Pranav, whereas husband is an American citizen having his domicile in USA.
Having regard to the nature of dispute between the parties, this Court referred the matter for mediation for amicable settlement. After mediation, the parties have agreed to live together by resolving their differences on following terms:-
"(1) Both the parties will withdraw their respective cases within 4 months from today.
(2) Mr. Naveen Sharma will find out 3-4 flats for choice of Smt. Meenal and Smt. Meenal will then go to U.S.A. to select one of them. This process should complete within 18 months.

In settlement, it was decided that all parties shall withdraw their respective cases but respondent no. 2 even after settlement failed to withdraw the impugned FIR, therefore same may be quashed.
