Q: Misuse of blank cheque given as surety to a friend

Hi sir, I took 150000 from my friend at 10rs inrest in the year 2013 and gave him signed pronote and blank check. I repaid money with in 9 months and asked him to return my check and note but he said lost them . Under good faith I trusted him and closed my bank account and remain silent. In 2015 December he came back to me and demanded to pay money again with threatening.so my father filed complaint against him at SP office. Police called him and he agreed that I paid all money and settled the issue. Now recently he sent me legal notice stating my check was bounced and asking me to pay money again. Can you please advise me how to protect my self. Thank you.

Advocate Ram Reddy Lenkala answered
Send reply through your counsel within receipt of legal notice denying all the material averments I’d notice and state the facts of your version. And warn him not to file NI Act case with false averments and even if he files contest the case by filing copy of complaint filed before police concerned by your father earlier.
