CORAM:

THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY Suo Motu TR.No.17012 of 2025 (STC.146/2020 of DISTRICT MUNSIF CUM JUDICIAL MAGISTRATE, MADUKKARAI, Madukarai Taluk, Coimbatore) For Petitioner : Mr.S.Vinoth Kumar Government Advocate (Crl.side)

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 in Cr.No.41 of 2017 was registered for the alleged offences under Section 7(1)(a) of Criminal Law Amendment Act, 2005. The accused was found in public place and abusing and threatening everyone. For the said allegation, the case is pending from 2017 at summons stage. 3.Considering the nature of allegation, the antecedents of the accused, the reason for absence from his usual place, and the submission that, despite best efforts, the summons could not be served, it is evident that even if the accused is brought to face trial, 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.
