District Mathura had passed order dated 11.6.2016 by which
applicant was summoned for prosecution of offence under section
138 N.I. Act. The summoning order as well as proceeding of said complaint case has been challenged by applicant through present
application.
(2.) Heard counsel for the applicant and AGA and perused the record.
(3.) Counsel for the applicant contended that in complaint it is mentioned that complainant had given amount of cheque as loan,
but he has no licence for profession of money lending. His further
contention was that date of service of legal notice after dishonor
of cheque was not proved, therefore there is no evidence that
complaint was filed after lapse of period of 15 days after service
of notice, which is illegality. His another submission was that the
applicant's cheques were lost about which police and bank were
informed and payment of those cheques were stopped under
direction of applicant. In such matter provision of section 138 N.I.
Act are not attracted. On the basis of these contentions, it was
argued on behalf of applicant that proceedings of trial court
should be quashed.;
