    Judegement

    Summary The court convicted the accused under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act for dishonoring a cheque of ₹2,00,000. The accused issued the cheque as repayment for borrowed funds but failed to honor it when presented. The court found the accused guilty of the offense, rejecting his defense that no consideration existed for the cheque, as statutory presumptions favor the complainant once the cheque is produced as evidence.
