IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS

DATED: 10.10.2025

CORAM:

THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY Suo Motu TR.No.20098 of 2025 (C.C.No. 800101 of 2011 of Judicial Magistrate Court No. I, Villupuram Taluk, Villupuram) 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 the alleged offence under Sections 420, 471 of IPC, 1860 r/w.109 of IPC. The occurrence in this case had taken place on 30.07.1986. It is stated that when the levy regarding movement of paddy was in force, the accused transported 106 quintals of paddy and hence the case. 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.
