Jurisdiction to file complaint in check bounce case


23-Nov-2023 (In Cheque Bounce Law)
Recently, I vacated room in Bangalore. Came to Hyderabad. House Owner sent me a check worth 5000/-. He has BOB bank account in Bangalore. I had HDFC account in Bangalore. As I moved to Hyderabad, I submitted check at Hyderabad HDFC branch. The check got bounced twice. Pls tell me, 1) from where should I send notice 2) from where should I file criminal case against him. 3) How much it costs for both separately. 4) How long will it take for case to complete 5) Can I recover all the money back (5000 + bank fine + travel costs to move from hyd to bangalore)
