Provisions expressly mentioned in the judgment/order text.
HC dismisses appeal in cheque dishonour case, affirming lower court's acquittal. Complainant failed to establish legally enforceable debt under Section 138 of Negotiable Instruments Act. Despite allegations of business contribution and third-party payments, no cogent documentary evidence was produced to substantiate claims. Accused effectively rebutted presumption of debt through substantial counter-evidence. The court found Complainant's assertions unsubstantiated and lacking credibility, particularly regarding guarantee or surety claims. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, upholding the original acquittal and placing onus of proof squarely on Complainant.
