Final Orders / Judgements
Case 400038/2021 - Summary Sulfikkar Ahammed was acquitted of cheque dishonor charges under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act in three consolidated cases involving three dishonored cheques worth Rs. 16 lakh. The court found that while the accused's signatures on the cheques were admitted, the complainant James George failed to prove the underlying business transaction (supply of 3 lakh eggs) with convincing documentary evidence—no bills, delivery notes, or transport documents were produced despite the complainant claiming to have received these. The court held that the accused successfully rebutted the statutory presumptions by establishing that the three blank signed cheques had been obtained by a third party (Lancy Fernandez) during an unrelated property transaction and later misused by the complainant, thus finding no legally enforceable debt or liability existed between them. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
