Well, you have communicated the bank offical about the stop payment when the cheque book is lost. So that is the proof you got. hope you have given the letter stating for stop payment,did u take the photo copy or received copy of the same frm bank manager, if not take it date must be the same day u gave the latter to the bank. secondly, did u give any compliant for such theft u doubt, or did u gave a paper publication of this fact, if u would have done this all would have worked as ur defense documents n evidencs. Any way stop-payment letter will also help issue legal notice to the person contending his fraud committed on u. Contact good lawyer to deal with the case.

File a FIR against your so-called "Friend" for the commission of the offences 379/411/420/467/468/471 IPC as seem committed by him in the given case and this is the best remedy available with you apart from defending your own case vigorously as advised by all other experts.
