2. The case was registered in Cr.No.567 of 2019 dated 14.10.2019 for the alleged offence under Section 294(b) and 387 of Indian Penal Code, 1860. The stolen property has been recovered and returned to the defacto complainant. There is no previous case or subsequent case as against the accused. The complainant is present before this Court and submits that he does not want to pursue the case any further.

3. Considering the factual matrix, context of the case and the antecedents of the accused, any further continuance of trial would impinge upon the accused's 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.21 of 2020 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate Court, Dharapuram, Dharapuram Taluk, Tiruppur shall stand quashed and this Suo Motu Transfer Case stand disposed of.
