    Case Summary: Criminal Appeal No. 226/2025 Court Decision: The District and Sessions Judge, Karur dismissed Prabakaran's appeal and confirmed his conviction under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. Prabakaran was sentenced to one year simple imprisonment and ordered to pay ₹4,00,000 compensation to complainant Prakasam, with an additional one month imprisonment if compensation is not paid within one month. Key Reasoning: The court found that Prabakaran borrowed ₹4,00,000 from Prakasam, issued a post-dated cheque (No. 108977 dated 23.12.2022) which bounced due to insufficient funds, and failed to respond to the statutory legal notice. Prabakaran provided no credible evidence to rebut the statutory presumption under Section 139 of the NI Act, merely denying the transaction without supporting documentation.
