He was<\/p>\n<p>prosecuted, convicted and sentenced for the offence<\/p>\n<p>punishable under Section 138 of the Negotiable<\/p>\n<p>Instruments Act.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>2.   The case of the prosecution was that            the<\/p>\n<p>complainant was running a stationary shop at Jail<\/p>\n<p>Road, Calicut and his friend Ramadas was running<\/p>\n<p>another   stationary    shop.        The office of S.K.S<\/p>\n<p>Travels is on the opposite side of the said shops.<\/p>\n<p>S.K.S Travels operates bus service from Kozhikode<\/p>\n<p>to Bangalore.    On 22.10.1989, bus No.CAK 5200<\/p>\n<p>belonging to S.K.S.Travels hit the aforementioned<\/p>\n<p>shops and the complainant and the neighbouring<\/p>\n<p>shop     owner   suffered considerable damage on<\/p>\n<p>account of loss of articles. Ext.P1 agreement was<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.528\/2000<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                            2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>therefore, drawn up in which the Manager of S.K.S<\/p>\n<p>Travels had agreed to compensate the complainant<\/p>\n<p>and Mr.Ramadas for damage that had been caused<\/p>\n<p>to them.       The damage was not then    assessed.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the figure was not mentioned.       But<\/p>\n<p>contrary to the undertaking so given, complainant<\/p>\n<p>and Mr.Ramadas       were   not compensated.    On<\/p>\n<p>23.12.1989, the complainant        and his friend<\/p>\n<p>Ramadas blocked the running of the bus belonging<\/p>\n<p>to S.K.S Travels. Therefore, there was delay in the<\/p>\n<p>commencing of the service.        Passengers were<\/p>\n<p>waiting for the bus. One of them was the daughter-<\/p>\n<p>in-law of PW2, who was then the senior executive<\/p>\n<p>president of     Gwaliyor Rayons, Mavoor.  He had<\/p>\n<p>intervened and persuaded the parties to settle the<\/p>\n<p>dispute. Claim was agreed to be settled for an<\/p>\n<p>amount of Rs.40,000\/- to be paid to the complainant<\/p>\n<p>and his friend Ramadas. Rs.5,000\/- was paid in<\/p>\n<p>cash     and Ext.P2   cheque  was    issued for the<\/p>\n<p>balance amount. The accused said that he owed<\/p>\n<p>money to S.K.S travels and therefore, he issued<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.528\/2000<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                             3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Ext.P2 cheque.      Entries in Ext.P2 cheque     was<\/p>\n<p>actually     written  by PW2, Mr.Sabu. Cheque on<\/p>\n<p>presentation      was dishonoured    and later   the<\/p>\n<p>complaint      was lodged, after complying with the<\/p>\n<p>statutory formalities. The defence taken by the<\/p>\n<p>accused was that he did not owe any money, nor<\/p>\n<p>does the complainant have any such case. Cheque<\/p>\n<p>in question      was issued  only  as a measure of<\/p>\n<p>security,      to enable  S.K.S Travels to pay the<\/p>\n<p>amount due to the complainant and Mr.Ramadas.<\/p>\n<p>3.    The Courts below declined to accept the case<\/p>\n<p>of the accused and proceeded       to   convict  and<\/p>\n<p>sentence him for the offence punishable under<\/p>\n<p>Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act.<\/p>\n<p>Hence this Revision.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>4.    I heard Mr.V.V.Surendran, learned counsel for<\/p>\n<p>the petitioner.      In spite of notice, there is no<\/p>\n<p>appearance on behalf of the first respondent.      I<\/p>\n<p>have gone through the evidence adduced. Even the<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.528\/2000<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                              4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>complainant      does not  have   a   case  that the<\/p>\n<p>accused had owed any money to the complainant or<\/p>\n<p>his friend Ramadas. The cheque in question was<\/p>\n<p>issued as a self drawer cheque. If the version of<\/p>\n<p>the accused is accepted, then it will mean that the<\/p>\n<p>accused had issued the cheque, as a measure of<\/p>\n<p>guarantying payment of the amount         to   S.K.S<\/p>\n<p>Travels. No doubt, issuance of a cheque by a third<\/p>\n<p>party,     for discharge of liability  incurred   by<\/p>\n<p>another person,       would also    be supported by<\/p>\n<p>adequate consideration, in the sense        that the<\/p>\n<p>liability     of S.K.S Travels  would also     be a<\/p>\n<p>consideration for a cheque issued by the accused.<\/p>\n<p>But, I find force in the contention raised by the<\/p>\n<p>learned counsel for the petitioner that the actual<\/p>\n<p>amount that had to be paid as compensation to the<\/p>\n<p>complainant and Mr.Ramadas         was not assessed<\/p>\n<p>on the date of issuance of the cheque.      Only an<\/p>\n<p>approximate figure was mentioned even by PW1.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, issuance of cheque on 23.12.2008 may<\/p>\n<p>not have been treated as one for discharge of a<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.528\/2000<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                               5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>liability which had then been incurred by the<\/p>\n<p>accused vis-a-vis the complainant. In my view,<\/p>\n<p>these aspects have not been correctly appreciated<\/p>\n<p>by the Courts below.          Therefore,   the matter<\/p>\n<p>requires a re-consideration by the Court below. I<\/p>\n<p>take note of the contention of the learned counsel<\/p>\n<p>for the petitioner that neither the complainant nor<\/p>\n<p>Mr.Ramadas are currently available and they are<\/p>\n<p>not really interested in prosecuting the matter.<\/p>\n<p>5.    For all these reasons,        Criminal Revision<\/p>\n<p>Petition is allowed. Orders passed by the Courts<\/p>\n<p>below are set aside and the case is remitted back to<\/p>\n<p>the trial Court       for fresh consideration.  If an<\/p>\n<p>application is made by the complainant for adducing<\/p>\n<p>any fresh evidence,      that shall be considered in<\/p>\n<p>accordance with law by the Court below. So also<\/p>\n<p>any motion made by the accused          for additional<\/p>\n<p>evidence      shall also be dealt with  by the Court<\/p>\n<p>below in accordance with law.\n<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.528\/2000<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                            6<\/span><\/p>\n<p>      Parties shall appear before the Court below on<\/p>\n<p>6.4.2009.
