Re: Cheque Bounce Case
I have already give you the reply, but one more thing i would like to add here, is to send a demand draft of the amount you actualy owe to that person. so it will give your case good backing if the offence under 138 is filed. Also write letter with the draft, stating your facts.

You might have to firstly file complaint with district consumer forum complaining the threats gien by bank and then you should have stopped the payment but since there is a lapse on your part,hence,you shall have to sent appropriate reply to their notice.
