Dishonor of Cheque - The presumption under Section 139 is a rebuttable presumption and the onus is on the accused to raise the probable defence. The standard of proof for rebutting the presumption is that of preponderance of probabilities. In the instant case, the accused has succeeded in rebutting the presumption, showing preponderance of probability by leading evidence and hence, onus shifts upon the complainant to prove otherwise, however, the complainant has failed to prove that the cheque was drawn towards legally enforceable debt as neither any account nor any details of amount paid by the complainant is submitted by the complainant before the trial Court. - HC
