Suo Motu TR.No. 7741 of 2025 3.Considering the factual matrix, context of the case, the reason for absence from his usual place, and the submission that, despite best efforts, the warrant could not be executed, 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 C.C.No.101 of 2020 of Judicial Magistrate No.2, Erode Taluk, Erode, stands quashed. These Suo Motu Transfer Cases are disposed of.
