IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS

DATED: 19.09.2025

CORAM:

THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY Suo Motu TR.No.10507 of 2025 (C.C.No.500204 of 2016 of Judicial Magistrate, Fast Track Court, Hosur, Hosur Taluk, Krishnagiri) For Petitioner : Ms.G.V.Kasthuri 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 offences under Section 379 of IPC. The incident occurred on 06.06.2007. The allegation is that the accused had stolen cash from the defacto complainant. However, the cash has been recovered and handed over to the defacto complainant. The warrant is pending against the accused. The defacto complainant doesn't want to pursue the matter further.

3. Considering the factual matrix, context of the case, the antecedents of the accused, the reason for absence from her 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 her right to a speedy trial. Due to the passage of time, a meaningful trial is unlikely, and no useful purpose would be served.
