Bhadang, J., set aside an order passed by the Magistrate whereby process\u00a0was issued against the petitioner for an offence punishable under Section 138 read with Section 142 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The complainant gave a flat to the petitioner on leave and license basis. According to the complainant, the petitioner handed-over to her a cheque in the sum of Rs 12,000 drawn on State Bank of India, towards payment of license fee for one month. However, when presented for encashment, the cheque was returned dishonoured on account of &#8220;insufficient funds&#8221;. In such background, the complainant filed a complaint under Section 138 against the petitioner, in which the impugned order of issue of process was passed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Galileo Francisco Teles, Advocate represented the petitioner. On the other hand, John Abreu Lobo, Advocate appeared for the complainant.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The High Court noted that the petitioner simply\u00a0<em>handed over\u00a0<\/em>the cheque in question to the complainant, allegedly towards payment of one month&#8217;s license fee. It was not a case that the cheque was\u00a0<em>issued\u00a0<\/em>by the petitioner, much less on his account with SBI. There was letter produced from SBI stating that the account number on which the cheque was issued did not stand in name of the petitioner. The Court observed,\u00a0<strong>&#8220;It is trite that a complaint under Section 138 of the Act, lies only against the drawer of the cheque, when the cheque issued by the drawer, on his account is dishonoured for want of funds. It was not seriously disputed during the course of the arguments at bar that the petitioner is neither a drawer nor the cheque is issued on his account. It is thus difficult to see as to how, process can be issued against the petitioner in the absence of the basic requirements of the offence under Section 138 of the Act being satisfied.&#8221;\u00a0<\/strong>Stating thus, it was held that the impugned order was not sustainable and was therefore set aside.
