    The High Court of Himachal Pradesh dismissed Nitin Chauhan's criminal revision petition challenging his conviction under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act for dishonoring two cheques (totaling Rs. 1,75,600) issued for apple crop purchase. The court upheld the trial court's conviction and one-year imprisonment sentence, finding the accused failed to establish a probable defense against the statutory presumption that cheques were issued to discharge lawful liability, despite claiming they were security cheques. Chauhan was directed to surrender within fifteen days to serve his sentence. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
