CORAM:

THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY Suo Motu TR.No.4398 of 2025 (S.T.C.No.6923 of 2021 of Judicial Magistrate No-I, Coimbatore Taluk, Coimbatore) For Petitioner : Mr.S.Vinoth Kumar Govt. Advocate(Crl.Side)

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 is registered for alleged offences under Section 75(1)(c) of Tamil Nadu City Police Act, 1888. The allegation in this case is that the accused was standing in a public place and abusing everyone. The accused is facing the trial since 2021. The case is pending at summons stage.

3. Considering the factual matrix, context of the case and despite best efforts, the 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.
