The HC dismissed the petition under Section 482 CrPC seeking quashing of summoning orders in a Section 138 NI Act prosecution. The court found the cheque issuance and dishonour admitted by the petitioners and the return memo on record; accordingly the rebuttable statutory presumption under Section 139 NI Act was prima facie attracted that the cheque was issued for a legally enforceable debt or liability.
