You will have a cheating, breach of trust and forgery case Mr A and Mrs A. One should not accept the cheques in the police station, as in future, accused will take the defence that the cheques were issued under pressure. And if you are saying that bank has given you all original documents of the same flat, than now you have the possession in the property.
Your case requires a details discussion and your case is on merits so there are all chances of success. Please contact

Sir,

you can file a private complaint against the dishonor of cheque. simultaneously a civil suit before appropriate civil court or consumer redressal forum for damages for refund of amount and interest as well you can also file a complaint. A police complaint can also be filed after issuing a legal notice and thereafter a private complaint before a Judicial Magistrate for cheating, fraud and breach of contract.

From when the cheque bounced, you have 30 days to send them a legal notice under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. After the notice if they still do not repay the amount you are entitled to file a complaint in the Magistrates Court for the same.
