Dishonour of Cheque - conviction of accused - The High Court upheld the conviction under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act based on the evidence presented, finding the accused guilty of dishonoring the cheques issued to discharge his financial liability. Regarding the defense of non-payment, the High Court found it unconvincing as the accused failed to provide sufficient evidence to support his claim, and the complainant's version was more credible. The High Court affirmed the lower court's judgment, stating that the evidence presented was considered in accordance with the law, and there was no reason to interfere with the conviction.
