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.This case in Cr.No.422 of 2018 dated 13.10.2018 was registered for the alleged offences under Sections 294(b), 324, and 506(2) of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. It is reported that the defacto Complainant does not wish to pursue the case any further. The case is pending at FS stage. Page No.1 of 3

3.Considering the nature of allegation, the antecedents of the accused, the reason for absence from his usual place, and the submission that, despite best efforts, 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 CC.No.116 of 2021 on the file of the District Munsif-cum-Judicial Magistrate Court, Kunnam, Kunnam Taluk, Perambalur, stands quashed. This Suo Motu Transfer Case is disposed of. 07.10.2025 sms electronically alone.
