Suo Motu TR.No.4124 of 2025 rna any further. 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 / warrant could not be served / 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.

Accordingly, the proceedings in C.C.No.93 of 2022 on the file of Judicial Magistrate Court, Palladam, Palladam Taluk, Tiruppur is quashed and this Suo Motu Transfer Case is disposed of. 08.10.2025 rna 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.
