Financial Fraud in Mysore - Urgent! help needed for an NRI

I am an NRI a person in Mysore who is running 2 colleges, has taken 21L from me for the property investment in 2015, by sending the empty plot pictures, I blindly trusted him as he was my accounts lecturer in college days, past from 2 years I am asking for money or property but unfortunately he is not ready to give anything, however in the last Sep I managed to take the agreement and cheques from him for 36L as he promised. As expected cheques have been bounced my father has filed a cheque bounce case as I collected cheques under my father's name. Now I want to file a criminal case as he cheated me, pls suggest how can I proceed on this matter, I am ready to file in Bangalore High court as well.
