Suo Motu TR.No.1975 of 2025 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS DATED: 03.09.2025 CORAM: THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY Suo Motu TR.No.1975 of 2025 (C.C.No.183 of 2024 of Judicial Magistrate Court No.II, Ulundurpet Taluk, Kallakurichi) Arun Pandiyan ... Petitioner Vs. Alex .... 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 Sections 279 and 337 of IPC, 1860. The incident occurred on 06.05.2020. The victim has filed a claim petition and also received the compensation.

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.183 of 2024 on the file of Judicial Magistrate Court No.II, Ulundurpet Taluk, Kallakurichi, 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.
