Dishonor of Cheque - Payment was stopped by the drawer - According to him, neither he mentioned the date nor that he has given any intimation to bank to stop payment he has not lodged any complaint to the court or to the Police in this regard, even he has not mentioned which number cheques are lost. So this defence appears to be only for defence sake and there is no merit in it. On the other hand, it is evident that both petitioner and respondent were business persons - There is nothing in defence evidence to show that the complainant case is not true. The defence evidence will not help the accused in any way. - HC
