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.The case was registered in Cr.No.405 of 2010 for the alleged offence under Sections 294(b), 384 & 506 (ii) of Indian Penal Code, 1860. The defacto complainant does not want to pursue the matter any further. The matter is pending at the stage of service of summon on the accused. Page No.1 of 3

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

4. Accordingly, the case in CC.133/2019 of Judicial Magistrate Court, Paramathy Taluk, Namakkal shall stand quashed and this Suo Motu Transfer Case stand disposed of.
