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 Sections 279 and 338 of the Indian Penal Code. The incident occurred on 25.01.2020. The compensation amount was claimed. The de facto complainant does not want to pursue with the case further. The accused is attending the case regularly. Any further continuation of proceedings 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.
