In a recent court decision, Fazullullah's request to cancel a police report was dismissed because he didn’t show up. Here’s what happened.

The Case: Fazullullah vs. State

Fazullullah asked the court to cancel a police report from the Maduravoyal Police Station in Chennai. The case was heard in the High Court of Madras on September 22, 2025, under Judge N. Sathish Kumar.

No Appearance, No Case

When the court session began, Fazullullah wasn’t there. The judge noticed this and decided to dismiss the request. The official order stated:

"Today, when the matter was taken up for hearing there is no representation for the petitioner."

What This Means

Since Fazullullah didn’t attend, the court couldn’t proceed with his request. His petition was dismissed for non-prosecution, meaning the case was dropped because he didn’t follow through with it.

The Respondent's Side

The State, represented by the Police Inspector from Maduravoyal Police Station and Government Lawyer Mr. R.Vinoth Raja, was ready for the hearing. However, without Fazullullah, the case couldn’t continue.

Summary of the Verdict

The court dismissed Fazullullah's request because he didn’t show up for the hearing. This decision emphasizes the importance of attending court if you want your case to be considered.
