It is better to lodge FIR of theft of cheques suspecting lying with the tenant and in the investigation of the case, tell specific name of your tenant as a suspected person. I hope your further problem can be sorted out by this way.

YOUR CLIENT MUST FILE AN FIR AGAINST HIS TENANT FOR STEALING THE CHEQUES FROM CUSTODY. HE MUST ALSO STATE IN THE FIR THAT HE HAS ALSO FORGED HIS SIGNATURES TO MAKE FRAUD WITH YOUR CLIENT AND THE BANK.

you are late in giving the complaint about your cheque missing. so give the reply to notice and then lodge a complaint.
Sukhija (Expert) 29 September 2009
ur client has seen the chq in court, rt? i.e. complaint is already filed. now file a police complaint immediately for forging his sign on chq and also bring this fact to the notice of the court immediately, go for 482, quashing of complaint if possible.
