Vicarious criminal liability of directors under Section 141 of the Negotiable Instruments Act requires strict compliance with the statutory conditions: the complaint must specifically aver how a director was in charge of and responsible for the company's business. General statements that directors managed day-to-day affairs are insufficient, and the complaint must also disclose who signed the dishonoured cheque.
