2. Considering the factual matrix, context of the case, the reason for absence from his usual place, and the submission that, 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.

3. Accordingly, the case in C.C.No.126 of 2022 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate, Dharapuram, Dharapuram Taluk, Tiruppur stands quashed. This Suo Motu Transfer Case is disposed of."

3. Registry is directed to upload the corrected order copy to the Court concerned.

29.10.2025 ssa electronically alone. 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.
