Cheating and taking money giving false promised

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 07 January 2020 This query is : Resolved 
I sr citizen ,on request of mr Gaikwad for financial help transfered Rs8 lakhs to his various accounts on the condition to make agreement with my son for doing Goshala business .after receiving money he did not make any agreement nor replied to my various mails and sms and he unilaterally used my money without our knowledge.
I lodged a police complaint against him for cheating and forgery.after some time he issued 4 blank cheques of Rs 1 lakh each signed by him.I filled up one cheque and deposited in bank but cheque returned unpaid with remark no funds in bank.
I again lodged a police complaint and this time police took our written statements in which mr Gaikwad admitted having taken rs 8 laks money from me and promised in his written statement to to police station return the money before 31/10/20019.
Now it is more than 6 months he has not returned my money till date
How to proceed with police station? Police is not taking interest
Can i deposit remaining 3 cheques and if returned unpaid proceed against him u/s138?
How to recover money? and how to deel with police station

You would have filed 138 NI Act case soon after dishonour of first cheque.
Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 07 January 2020
You should deposit the remaining cheques for collection if the same are still valid for presentation. As the life of the cheque is 3 months from the same mentioned in the cheque so do accordingly.

If you are having the copy of the writing of your so-called friend provided before the police authorities accepting the debt of Rs. 8 Lakh and further seeking time to re-pay to same upto a specific date then you can definitely file a civil suit for recovery, The path of criminal case is already open through police.

If the police is not initiating any action then you have 2 options viz-1. filing a criminal complaint and 2 Seeking direction from High Court for the police to act upon the already lodged FIR.

1. Based on:
a) Bank Money Transfer records
b) Police Statement of opposite party
c) All Four Cheques

2. FILE:
a) Private Criminal case in the local Magistrates court, for offences of Cheating, Intimidation, Fraud, Breach of Trust etc.... against the person, supported with all relevant supporting Documents & Witnesses.
b) Alongwith above simultaneously file Civil Court suit for Recovery of 8 lakhs and interest thereon and litigation costs and other damages /compensations.

3. Filing both above cases simultaneously, will make the opposite person come down with his Cash, for settlement. No other simpler solution, since 138 case will not yield the desired results nor will get you back your money, that was swindled from you.

You can fill up the other cheques and get them bounced after which you can initite cheque bounce case against him, besides, you may even file a money recovery suit on the basis of his written statement admitting his liability, before the police and on the basis of other documentary evidences in your possession.
