Rebuttable presumption of cheque issuance under negotiable instruments law was applied to infer existence of a legally recoverable debt after the cheque was presented twice and dishonoured for want of funds; complainant's demand and silence to legal notice undermined accused's defence that goods were undelivered, which the additional evidence did not establish, so conviction and sentence were sustained.
