SO your friend has not signed any cheque. He is being threatened with forgery.
where did he rive the threat and whether that place is covered by thana.
what is he waiting for. only for cheques to be forged and he lodged with N number of criminal case.
He should report the matter to the police without wasting even a minute.

Dear Mr Jeevan Patil,
Have you understood the query?
The querist says that his erstwhile partner says that he will forge the signature of the querist and present the cheque in bank through a third party writing a huge amount.
Once the cheque signed (forged is secondary issue) by the querist gets bounced, will not the querist face complaint case u/s. 138 N.I. Act?
How the bank will be responsible?

He will sign himself and will forge my signature too.and will present through a third party.cheque will bounce at any cost due to closed account.but the third party can file a case against us. How can I stop it.

Well advised by Adv Jeevan Patil.If the Signature is Forged On the Cheque It is Duty of the banker to Ensure and the Forensic Depts are there only for These.Submit A Detailed Letter to the Bank and Take Acknowledgements You Could also File Police complaint In advance against Your Ex Partner .Consult A Local Good Criminal Side Advocate and Take Pre Cautions Immediately.

Forensic deptt will come in picture only when a criminal case of cheque bouncing is filed against you deny the signature (after seeking bail) In this situation you will in any case be facing humiliation and harassment.
In case forgery is successful you are off.
Criminal case from your side is valid even when you are threatened with harm by forgary.
SO better immediately meet local lawyer and consult filing of Police complaint as advised by Mr Narasimha.

File police complaint regarding threat and details.

I agree with the Advocate Jeevan Patil opinion. the author may issue a notice to the bank as well as publish in the local newspaper about the anticipated threat posed by his ex-partner in this regard and simultaneously lodge a complaint with the police about this extortion issue by that person. This may take care of the issue.
