Petitioner Vs. Ravichandran .... Respondent For Petitioner : Mrs.G.Kasthuri Additional Government Pleader (Crl.side) Order This Suo Motu case is dealt with in an extraordinary manner by this Dedicated Bench, pursuant to Suo Motu W.P.(Crl.)No.618 of 2025. 2. This case is registered for alleged offences under Section 379 of IPC, 1860. The incident occurred on 21.12.2021. The allegation in this case is that Page No.1 of 3 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Suo Motu TR.No.1971 of 2025 the accused had stolen the mobile phone of the de facto complainant and the same is recovered and also handed over to the de facto complainant. 3. Considering the factual matrix, context of the case, the antecedents of the accused, the reason for absence from his usual place, and the submission that, despite best efforts, the summons 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 case in C.C.No.19 of 2022 on the file of District Munsif Cum Judicial Magistrate Court, Madhavaram Taluk, Tiruvallur, stands quashed and this Suo Motu Transfer case is disposed of. 03.09.2025 jd NOTE:This order is digitally signed and communicated electronically alone.
