A.Dear Client,
When the subject matter of any deal or contract is itself void under the relevant law, you are alone be held responsible for the consequences arising out of your foul play. Based on the vague assurance of the concerned person you issued a blank cheque for the said voidable contract and by doing so you put yourself in the trap/glitch of the blackmailer who is now threatening to extort money from you on either pretext with ulterior motives. So, at the moment, you have no other way but to inform the concerned Bank with details of the cheque advising to stop payment against the said cheque which you found missing from your custody, and make a GD at the local Police Station for the missing of the said Cehque ASAP.
