Respondent No.1 preferred a private complaint. His case is<\/p>\n<p>that  he is engaged in timber business           and petitioner purchased<\/p>\n<p>timber from him in August, 2004. For the sum of Rs.1,90,000\/- due to<\/p>\n<p>him petitioner issued four cheques (Ext.P1 series). Those cheques<\/p>\n<p>were   dishonoured    for insufficiency of funds as        proved by Ext.P2<\/p>\n<p>series.  Respondent No.1 issued notice to the petitioner intimating<\/p>\n<p>dishonour and demanding payment. Issue and service of notice are<\/p>\n<p>proved by Exts.P3 to P5 series. Respondent No.1 gave evidence as<\/p>\n<p>P.W.1 regarding the transaction          and    execution of the cheques.<\/p>\n<p>According to petitioner he has not purchased any timber from<\/p>\n<p>respondent No.1. His former Manager, Naveen (D.W.1) stealthily took<\/p>\n<p>the cheques along with other documents from his office           and those<\/p>\n<p>cheques are misused. D.W.1 admitted that he had been working as<\/p>\n<p>Manager of     petitioner but denied that the           cheques and other<\/p>\n<p>CRL. R.P. No.2101 of 2009<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                 -: 2 :-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>documents were taken by him         from the office of petitioner.    He<\/p>\n<p>claimed that he saw respondent No.1 for the first time when he was<\/p>\n<p>summoned to the office of        Deputy Superintendent of Police (in<\/p>\n<p>connection with the complaint preferred by petitioner). Courts below<\/p>\n<p>were not impressed by the contention raised by petitioner, accepted<\/p>\n<p>the evidence of respondent No.1 and found the petitioner guilty.<\/p>\n<p>Challenge in this revision is only regarding execution of the cheques.<\/p>\n<p>It is contended by learned counsel for petitioner that finding of the<\/p>\n<p>courts below in that regard is not correct.\n<\/p>\n<p>      3.    It is not disputed by     petitioner that Ext.P1 series are<\/p>\n<p>signed by him and drawn on the account maintained by him.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, he had no transaction with respondent No.1 at a<\/p>\n<p>time when D.W.1 was working as his Manager, he stealthily got the<\/p>\n<p>cheques and handed over the same to respondent No.1. D.W.1 has<\/p>\n<p>denied that.   There is no evidence to show that      respondent No.1<\/p>\n<p>stealthily got custody of the cheques (Ext.P1 series).   Petitioner, it is<\/p>\n<p>not disputed is   a business man. ln spite of signed cheques and other<\/p>\n<p>documents being allegedly stolen from his office he has not intimated<\/p>\n<p>his bank about that and requested stoppage of payment as per those<\/p>\n<p>cheques. He did not also put such a contention to respondent No.1<\/p>\n<p>when the latter served notice of dishonour on him and he was called<\/p>\n<p>upon to make payment. In the circumstances, contention raised by<\/p>\n<p>CRL. R.P. No.2101 of 2009<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                   -: 3 :-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>petitioner regarding his missing of cheques has only to be considered<\/p>\n<p>as the result of an afterthought. Nothing is brought out to disbelieve<\/p>\n<p>the evidence of respondent No.1 regarding transaction and execution<\/p>\n<p>of the cheques.    Courts below have assessed the evidence let in and<\/p>\n<p>found in favour of due execution of the cheque. There is no reason to<\/p>\n<p>interfere with that finding.\n<\/p>\n<p>      4.     Learned magistrate sentenced petitioner to undergo simple<\/p>\n<p>imprisonment for three months               and directed      him to pay<\/p>\n<p>Rs.2,05,000\/- as compensation. In default of payment, sentence of<\/p>\n<p>simple imprisonment for three months also was provided. Appellate<\/p>\n<p>court did not interfere with either conviction or sentence.         On a<\/p>\n<p>consideration of the circumstances of the case, nature of the offence<\/p>\n<p>and object of legislation I am satisfied that simple imprisonment till<\/p>\n<p>rising of the court will be sufficient in the ends of justice. There is no<\/p>\n<p>reason to interfere with the direction for payment of compensation and<\/p>\n<p>the default sentence provided.\n<\/p>\n<p>      5.     Counsel requested four months&#8217; time to deposit the fine<\/p>\n<p>in the trial court.   Counsel submits that petitioner is unable to raise<\/p>\n<p>the amount immediately. Having regard to the circumstances stated<\/p>\n<p>by learned counsel     I am inclined to grant three months&#8217; time to the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner to deposit compensation in the trial court.<\/p>\n<p>      Resultantly, this revision is allowed in part to the following<\/p>\n<p>CRL.
