DATED: 10.10.2025

CORAM:

THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY Suo Motu TR.No.18768 of 2025 (C.C.No.1000842 of 2017of Additional Mahila Court, Tiruppur, Tiruppur Taluk, Tiruppur) For Petitioner : Mr.S.Sugendran 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.The case was registered in Cr.No.92 of 2016 dated 10.02.2016 for the alleged offence under Section 392 of Indian Penal Code, 1860. It is reported that stolen property has already been recovered and returned to the defacto complainant and there is no previous or subsequent case as against the accused. Further, it is submitted that the case is presently pending at the stage of warrant. The defacto complainant is present before the Court and has stated that he does not want to pursue the case any further.

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.
