Suo Motu TR.No.5529 of 2025
IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS
DATED: 06.10.2025
CORAM:
THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY Suo Motu TR.No.5529 of 2025 (C.C.No.225 of 2022 of District Munsif cum Judicial Magistrate, Tiruporur Taluk, Chengalpattu) For Petitioner : Mr.S.Sugendran Additional Public Prosecutor
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 offence under Section 3(1), 4(1) and 5(1)(a) of the Immoral Traffic Prevention Act, 1956. The incident occurred on 07.10.2015. The allegation is that the accused were permitting their premises for prostitution and the other accused were seen to be engaging with the victims. The case is pending at the stage of NBW. Considering the factual matrix, context of the case, the antecedents of the accused, the reason for absence from their usual place, and the submission that, despite best efforts, the warrant could not be executed, it is evident that even if the accused are brought to face trial, it would impinge upon their right to a speedy trial. Due to the passage of time, a meaningful trial is unlikely, and no useful purpose would be served.
