Suo Motu TR.No.1674 of 2025 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS DATED: 09.09.2025 CORAM: THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY Suo Motu TR.No.1674 of 2025 (C.C.No.800050 of 2017 of Judicial Magistrate No.II, Krishnagiri Taluk, Krishnagiri) State Rep.by Sub Inspector of Police, Maharajakadai Police Station, Krishnagiri. ... Petitioner Vs. Arjun ... Respondent For Petitioner : Mr.S.Vinoth Kumar Additional Public Prosecutor ORDER This Suo Motu Case is dealt with in an extraordinary manner by the Dedicated Bench, pursuant to Suo Motu.W.P.(Crl.) No.618 of 2025. 2. This case is registered for alleged offence under Section 457 & 380 of Indian Penal Code. The incident occurred during the year 2016. The allegation in this case is that the accused entered the shop of the defacto complainant and stolen a sum of Rs.75,000/-. It can be seen that only a portion Page No.1 of 3 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Suo Motu TR.No.1674 of 2025 of the money was recovered at the time of the arrest and the accused was also remanded and came out on bail. The recoverd money has been handed over to the defacto complainant. Thereafter, the accused remained elusive and the case is pending at the stage of execution of warrant. 3. Considering the factual matrix, context of the case and the submission that, despite best efforts, the warrant could not be served, it is evident that even if the accused is brought to face trial, it would impinge upon his 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 proceedings in C.C.No.800050 of 2017 of Judicial Magistrate No.II, Krishnagiri Taluk, Krishnagiri is quashed and this Suo Motu Transfer Case is disposed of. 09.09.2025 veda Note to the Trial Court: This order is digitally signed and communicated electronically alone.
