There is no previous case or subsequent case as against the accused. The case is pending at the stage of execution of warrant on the accused.

Accordingly, the proceedings in C.C.No.90 of 2020 of District Munsif cum Judicial Magistrate Court, Vikravandi Taluk, Villupuram, is quashed and this Suo Motu Transfer Case is disposed of. 10.09.2025 mtl / veda Note to the Trial Court: This order is digitally signed and communicated electronically alone.
