Punishment provision for complainant for 138 NI act
2 years ago
Back Ground
Accused is acquitted for the offence punishable under Section 138 of Negotiable
Instruments Act.
Following are the question,
• What action can be taken against the complainant?
• Any provisions in the law to punish the complainant for the 138 NI act.
A.Dear Sir,
If complainant not went in appeal against such acquittal judgment then you can get issue a legal notice and file criminal case for defamation and a civil case for defamation claiming huge compensation.
I could have explained more if background is known to me. If background is made known in full then legal experts will be in position to understand correctly. Moreso, the background must be in brief.
Please give me FIVE STAR if satisfied by my answers.
