I am doing Marketing job in private sector since last 25 years. In year 2007, I along with my close friend started construction business on mutually agreed partnership of 80:20. We got some labour oriented works. Most of time, I was on the tour for my job & to take care of business at sites. My partner used to arrange the labour & take care of their payments. Current Bank account has been opened with my name as all money required in business has been invested by me & my friend was only working partner on mutual understanding. I used to keep some signed blank checks with my friend for making the payments to labour as most of time I was not in the town. The business suffered huge losses & could run only up to March’08. I have close down every thing & settle down all payment including my partner’s account. But unfortunately I forget to take back some blank signed checks from my partner due to my carelessness.
Now every thing was again come to line as I concentrate only in my job. Suddenly in August’10 my wife received a legal notice of check bouncing for Rs 8,00,000/- (Eight Lacks only). I was even not aware the name of check bearer before that. I lodged a FIR (with possible documents) against my partner & accused thru lower court under section 156. Just after 15 days of first notice, I received another notice of check bouncing for Rs. 9,00,000/- (Nine Lacks only). Name on the bearer of the check was my partner.
From some sources I come to know that they have filed a case under section 138. Till now I have not received notice from court. Police is also not doing any kind of help. I have also tried to settle down things with help of social workers but their advocate is not ready for the demand of less than 20 lacks. I am getting a salary of 42000/- PM, how can I fulfill their undue demand? Since last 7-8 months, I was not making justice to my job, can not sleep properly, feeling depression & thinking about sucide.
Can any body advice, what to do?
