If the claim relates to September 2006, and if there is no acknowledgment in writing by you, then the claim is time barred. I presume that you have not given them any cheque after that date or they don't have any of your post dated cheque. Unless there is any bouncing of cheque, they cannot file any criminal case. If they file civil case, it can be defended on the ground of limitation. Hope you have replied to them that you don't owe them any amount.
