1 APPLN-5764.10 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.5764 OF 2010 Abad Khan s/o Ryasat Khan .... Applicant Vs. State of Maharashtra & Anr. .... Respondents Shri M.A. Khan for the Applicant. Ms M.M. Deshmukh, APP, for the State. CORAM: R.C. CHAVAN, J. DATED: AUGUST 01, 2011 P.C: This is an application for leave to file appeal against acquittal of the respondent for dishonour of four cheques of Rs.28,000/- each drawn by the respondent. The learned Magistrate amongst other things found that the complainant had put forth in evidence copy of a delivery challan which is at Exhibit P-8 showing that 4250 kgs. of material was delivered to the accused. The accused produced the original of this challan which shows that only 250 kgs. of material was received. Though the learned counsel for the complainant sought to submit before the Court that the challan 2 APPLN-5764.10 produced by the accused was not the original of the challan produced by the complainant, the complainant himself admitted that Exhibit D-1 was the original of Exhibit P-8. Thus, it is clear that the complainant had altered all the entries in the challan to show that he had supplied 4250 kgs. of C.R. Coils. Such an unscrupulous witness could not have been believed by the trial Court. Therefore, no fault can be found with the findings recorded by the learned Magistrate. Leave refused. Appeal dismissed.
