Judgement

Case Summary: Viswambaran v. Chandran (CC 2740/2017) The court convicted Chandran under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act for issuing a cheque of Rs. 10,00,000 that was dishonored due to insufficient funds. The complainant proved he lent this amount to the accused, who issued the cheque as repayment; the cheque bounced on 28.11.2013, and a demand notice sent on 27.12.2013 went unheeded. The accused's defense—claiming his roommate fraudulently used his cheque book while he was jailed—was rejected as unsubstantiated. Sentence: Four months simple imprisonment plus Rs. 20,00,000 compensation (with one additional month imprisonment if compensation remains unpaid). This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
