rna The de facto complainant has already filed the claim petition and also awarded with the compensation, it is also reported that the accused is regularly attending the Court.

3. Considering the factual matrix, context of the case, the antecedents of the accused, it is evident that even if the accused is continuing 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 proceedings in C.C.No.170 of 2023 on the file of District Munsif cum Judicial Magistrate Court, Annur, Annur Taluk, Coimbatore is quashed and this Suo Motu Transfer Case is disposed of. 09.10.2025 rna The Trial Court shall take note of the order and accordingly classify the case pending before them as allowed / dismissed / disposed of, etc, and while doing so, consider any applications such as disposal of properties, etc., and pass appropriate orders, as may be necessary. Further, the Court below is directed to dispatch the copy of this order to all concerned." 17.11.2025 rna Suo Motu TR.No.12072 of 2025 2/2 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
