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.The case was registered in Cr.No.106 of 2013 for an alleged offence under Section 457 and 380 of IPC. The occurrence is said to have taken place on 29.01.2013. The allegation in this case is that the accused persons broke open the door of the jewellery shop belongs to the defacto complainant and stolen the properties worth about Rs.6 Lakhs. The case is pending from the year 2013 and it is pending at the stage of service of summons. The stolen properties were recovered and handed over to the defacto complainant and he does not want to pursue the case. Considering the factual matrix, the context of the case, the background of the accused, the reason for his absence at his place of residence, and the submission made that, despite best efforts, the summons could not be served, it is clear that even if the accused faces trial, no useful purpose would be served.
