    Case Summary: CC 3259/2016 - Kareem v. Noushad The court acquitted accused Noushad of cheque dishonor charges under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, finding the complainant's testimony unreliable due to contradictory statements about when and where the cheques were delivered—claiming alternately they were issued in Qatar in April 2015, after returning to India, and one year later. Since the prosecution failed to establish consistent proof of execution and delivery, the statutory presumption favoring the complainant was rebutted. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
