Judgment text as reported

MIr Ahmed Khan VS State S. 489-F---Dishonestly issuing a cheque---Appreciation of evidence---Criminal liability in case of dishonouring of cheque---Scope---Accused was charged for issuing a cheque in favour of complainant, which was dishonoured when presented before the concerned bank---Cheque being the mode of payment must appear to have been issued against business consideration or any other dealing of the date and time thereof, showing that the issuer was liable to pay the amount for the consideration of which he had issued the cheque---If the issuance of such cheque was no meaningful transaction creating an instant liability of payment of the amount thereof, against certain consideration involved therein, no criminal liability would prima-facie accrue in case of any cheque so issued and dishonored, since where there was no such liability there was no fraud or dishonesty---Admittedly, in the present case the complainant had absolutely failed to establish on record that there had been any transaction between him and the petitioner for which the cheque had been issued and subsequently was declared dishonored---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
