The text states that cheque dishonour alone did not establish criminal liability unless the complaint showed dishonest intent at the time of drawing the cheque, and it also lacked specific allegations of direct representations, active managerial participation, or connivance by the directors. As most petitioners had ceased connection with the company before the transaction, the remaining allegations were treated as, at most, civil in nature. The proceedings were therefore said to be liable to quashment under section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. en-us Mon, 14 Oct 1985 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 12:57:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=101308 A complaint based on dishonoured cheques and alleged misrepresentations in a company transaction was tested on its own averments to determine whether cheating or conspiracy was made out.
