No.618 of 2025. 2.The case was registered in Cr.No.132 of 2007 for the alleged offence under Section 380 of the I.P.C. The mother case in C.C.No.620 of 2023 proceeded further and resulted in an acquittal. The grounds for acquittal also Page No.1 of 4 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Suo Motu TR.No.16068 of 2025 apply to the present accused. The matter has been pending for the execution of warrant. 3.Considering the factual matrix, context of the case, the background of the accused, the reason for his absence at his place of residence, and the submission made that, despite best efforts, the warrant could not be executed, it is evident that even if the accused is brought to face trial, it would impinge upon her right to a speedy trial. Due to the passage of time, a meaningful trial is unlikely, and no useful purpose would be served. 4.Accordingly, the case in C.C.No.67 of 2024 of Judicial Magistrate Court No.I, Karaikal Taluk, Karaikal, stands quashed. This Suo Motu Transfer Case is disposed of. 25.09.2025 mtl Note to the Trial Court: This order is digitally signed and communicated electronically alone.
