It is contended on behalf of the accused that subject cheque is issued in discharge of liability to pay the price of Travel bags supplied to the accused worth Rs.1,67,520/-. 3. Despite giving more than sufficient opportunity, accused and his advocate failed to file reply. Today also accused and advocate absent. Considering statutory right guaranteed under section 143(3) of the Negotiable Instrument Act, I have passed the order on the basis of available evidence on record. 4. To substantiate contention of supplying various Travel bags, complainant has relied upon carbon copies of various bills. Cheque Exh.22 is drawn on account of accused and issued in favour of complainant. The accused has not replied demand notice dated 20.05.2022 alleged to be sent to the accused by Registered Post. 5. More than prima facie evidence available on record to consider the existence of legal liability on the basis of disputed cheque against accused. At present presumption under section 118(a) and 139 is in favour of complainant. Final conclusion of the trial will take its own time.
