Suo Motu TR.No.2025 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.2025 of 2025 (C.C.No.900331 of 2013 of Judicial Magistrate Court No.II, Chengalpattu Taluk, Chengalpattu) Guduvancherry P.S ... Petitioner Vs. 1. Ramesh @ Radha Krishnan 2. Selva @ Selvakumar .... 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, Page No.1 of 3 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Suo Motu TR.No.2025 of 2025 1860. The incident occurred on 19.01.2013. The stolen TATA Sumo Gold Silver color car has been recovered and 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.900331 of 2013 on the file of Judicial Magistrate Court No.II, Chengalpattu Taluk, Chengalpattu, 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. The Court below is directed to dispatch the copy of this order to all concerned.
