3. Considering the nature of allegation and the submission that despite best efforts, summon could not be served, it is evident that even if the accused is brought to face trial, it would impinge upon a right to a speedy trial of the accused. Due to the passage of time, a meaningful trial is unlikely, and no useful purpose would be served.
4. Accordingly, the proceedings in STC.1409/2022 of Judicial Magistrate Court, Rasipuram Taluk, Namakkal is quashed and this Suo Motu Transfer Case is disposed of. 25.09.2025 veda Note to the Trial Court: This order is digitally signed and communicated electronically alone.
