First there is not matter if anyone give cheque to you as a security and there after he stopped the said cheque. His liability started when he gave you that cheque and no matter he was filed a forgery case against you. You can file a case of 138 against him

Dear,
You can file criminal complaint under section 138 No Act against him as well a civil suit for recovery to recover the money. Both remedies are avaiable to.you . No need to fear from bank action .
