CORAM:

THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY Suo Motu TR.No.8752 of 2025 (C.C.No.14 of 2021 of Judicial Magistrate Court No.II, Madhuranthagam 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 was registered in Crime No.15 of 2020 for alleged offences under Section 379 of I.P.C. The stolen property has been recovered and returned to the defacto complainant. It is submitted that case is pending from the year 2020 and there is no previous or subsequent case against the accused.

1. Considering the factual matrix, context of the case and the antecedents of the accused, any further continuance of trial would impinge upon the accused's right to a speedy trial. Due to the passage of time, a meaningful trial is unlikely, and no useful purpose would be served. 2.
