P.O. declared by court not try to get bail in other case P.O. declared by court not try to get bail in other case

5 years ago

I filed a case u/s 138 N.I.Act where cheque issuer declared as P.O.
Now the person(accused) is trying to get the bail from session court for some other case (same type). Can I oppose his bail in that case by giving reference to P.O. order of my case . If yes, what is the procedure.

A.On being declared as PO, punishment is 3 years or fine or both. Further offence under section 174 IPC can be registered against PO’s extending it to 7 years or fined or both. Harboring PO is also an offence under section 216 of IPC with jail up to 7 years in certain cases.

Primarily police officer of police station of which he is a resident. However any police officer with or without courts order can arrest. Also any private person can also arrest and forward the PO to Magistrate.

Oppose bail and obtain order of his arrest
