Suo Motu TR.No.7577 of 2025 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS DATED: 19.09.2025 CORAM: THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY Suo Motu TR.No.7577 of 2025 (C.C.No.151 of 2019 of District Munsif Court cum Judicial Magistrate Court, Veppanthattai Taluk, Perambalur) The Sub Inspector of Police, Arumbavur Police Station, Perambalur. ... Petitioner Vs. 1.Rajamanickam 2.Thangaraj 3.Kannaiyan 4.Gopal 5.Manikandan ... Respondents For Petitioner : Mr.S.Sugendran 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.The case in Cr.No.186 of 2007 was registered for the alleged offences under Sections 420 and 506(i) of the I.P.C. The occurrence is of the year 2007. It is reported that the defacto complainant is not found in the respective Page No.1 of 3 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Suo Motu TR.No.7577 of 2025 address and remain untraceable. The case is pending from the year 2007 at the stage of execution of warrant on the accused. 3. Considering the factual matrix, context of the case, the reason for absence from his usual place, and the submission that, despite best efforts, the warrant could not be executed, 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.151 of 2019 of District Munsif Court cum Judicial Magistrate Court, Veppanthattai Taluk, Perambalur, stands quashed. This Suo Motu Transfer Case is disposed of. 19.09.2025 mtl Note to the Trial Court: This order is digitally signed and communicated electronically alone. The Trial Court shall take note of the order and accordingly classify the case pending before them as allowed / dismissed / disposed of, etc, and while doing so, consider any applications such as disposal of properties, etc., and pass appropriate orders, as may be necessary.
