in case you got the divorce by mutual consent, no case can be filed unless the cheque that was given, is towards the alimony and cheque number is mentioned in the judgment.

Dont get upset as you must have mentioned this cheque and its nos. in your settlement in your divorce petition that it was for security etc. given to your wife and was to return back to you after the divorce . you can also file a complaint before the police giving all the reasons you have mentioned in your question against your ex wife.
