Three people came to my office.One of them signed application cum agreement for getting my consultation services and the rest two winessed those documents.After a consultration of three hours I was given a cheque of Rs. 10000/- against which I issued them a reciept counter signed by the issuer of the cheque(I have a copy of that reciept with original counter sign of the issuer of the cheque). But after getting out of my office they lodged a complaint against me that On gun point I forced them sign the documents and issue the cheque. What is my legal stand,how can I prove that I did nothing like that I am entitled to get the cheque encashed ?

If they have done so then it appears that the cheque would likely to be dishonoured and to avoid their liability in the section 138 NI Act proceeding they have made that complaint.

You have to prove your point by merits of the circumstances. What services did you offer and were they compelled to enter into your office. So far have any other person faced similar situation. If not, only why these people are complaining? Your consultation did not warrant them to pay you Rs. 10,000/- but they had paid on their own for further services. So by such logical conclusions, you could convince police while you are interrogated.
