High Court exercised inherent jurisdiction sparingly to refuse quashing of a complaint under the Negotiable Instruments Act, holding that appreciation of evidence is impermissible at the quashing stage and disputed facts requiring trial cannot be decided on a Section 482 petition; outcome: the summons and complaint stand. The court relied on the statutory presumption that admitted signatures on cheques indicate issuance to discharge a legally enforceable liability, treating security cheques as valid acknowledgements of liability that may be used to discharge debt; consequence: petition dismissed while preserving the accused's right to rebut the presumption at trial.
