Order

The court dropped proceedings against Antony Joseph under Section 281 of BNSS (equivalent to Section 258 Cr.PC) in a traffic offense case (IPC §279, MV Act §185). Despite repeated summons issued since November 2019, police could not locate the accused at the provided address, and the court found that further search efforts would be futile and cost-prohibitive compared to the maximum fine imposable. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
