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 in Cr.No.252 of 2019 was registered for the alleged offences under Sections 279 and 304(A) of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. The defacto complainant has filed claim petition and the amount also has been awarded however, the defacto complainant objects for quashing the case. Be that as it may, the case if of the year 2019 and summons has not been served. 3.Considering the nature of allegation, the antecedents of the accused, 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
