Legal Question in Criminal Law in India

I have paid a person rs. 7 lakhs after withdrawing from my bank account. This amount was paid as he promised to invest 10crores in my company and needed 10 lakhs for carrying 10crores cash from Ahmedabad to Bangalore but I gave him Rs.7 lakhs cash and post dated cheques for Rs. 3 lakhs. Can I file cheating case against this person.

your question is really strange. how can you pay a person who is supposed to invest in your company. anyhow, you may file a civil suit for recovery as cheating is not made out.

This appears to be clear case of cheating of deception based on a promise never intended to be kept.

In case you have some influence or well wisher in police, then a thorough investigation would give you good results and would also save people like from being cheated in future.

yes I agree with mr. nahar. there was an inducement at the very inception. You may please make a criminal complaint of cheating and simultaneously may file a civil suit for recovery.
