ORDER

This Suo Motu case is dealt with in an extraordinary manner by the Page No.1 of 3

Dedicated Bench, pursuant to Suo Motu W.P.(Crl.)No.618 of 2025.

2. This case is registered for alleged offences under Sections 147, 148, 448, 294(b), 427, 341, 506(2) of IPC and Section 4 of Tamil Nadu Prohibition of Harassment of Women Act, 2002. The incident occurred on 17.07.2021. The mother's case in SC.No.59 of 2022 on the file of the learned Judicial Magistrate No.II, Ariyalur proceeded further and resulted in an acquittal. The grounds for acquittal also apply to the present accused. The matter has been pending for the execution of the warrant since 2021. Considering the factual matrix, the context of the case, the background of the accused, the reason for his absence at his place of residence, and the submission made that, despite best efforts, the warrant could not be executed, it is clear that even if the accused faces trial, no useful purpose would be served. Accordingly, the case in CC.No.350 of 2022 on the file of the Additional Mahila Court, Ariyalur Taluk, Ariyalur stands quashed and this Suo Motu Transfer case is disposed of.
