A.Get a good lawyer, explain the same to her/him and specifically deny your signature and also narrate the situation under which she got the cheque into her hands. And you should at least write a letter to Police ( if you cannot personally do it ) about loss of your cheque leaf. Then appear in teh case, take bail and defend the case well.
