IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS

DATED: 23.10.2025

CORAM:

THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY Suo Motu TR.No.13747 of 2025 (C.C.No. 700553 of 2002 of Judicial Magistrate No. III Court, Tirupathur Taluk, Tirupathur) 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 Sections 279 and 304(A) of IPC. Both the accused and the complainant are not traceable. It is not known whether any claim petition is filed or not. Even if it is filed, the disposal of this case will not prejudice the same. The defacto complainant also doesn't want to pursue the matter further. Non Bailable Warrant is pending against the accused.

3. Considering the factual matrix, context of the case, the antecedents of the accused, 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 Page No.1 of 2 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
