    Copy of Judgment

    The Judicial Magistrate acquitted Sachin Ananda Shinde of cheque dishonor charges under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, finding that while the accused drew a Rs. 1,50,000 cheque for a legitimate debt, the complainant failed to prove the cheque's dishonor beyond reasonable doubt—specifically, the bank's return memo lacked the required official mark and certification under Section 65-B of the Evidence Act, making it inadmissible as evidence.
