1 APPLN-1207.11 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE  CRIMINAL CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.1207 OF 2011 Narendra Manik Bhosale .... Applicant Vs. Uddhav Muralidhar Chavan & Anr. .... Respondents Shri Mahindra Deshmukh for the Applicant. Smt. V.R. Bhosale, APP, for the State. CORAM: R.C. CHAVAN, J. DATED: NOVEMBER 17, 2011 P.C: This is an application for leave to file appeal against the acquittal of the respondent ordered by the learned 4th Judicial Magistrate, First Class, Sangli, because the Magistrate harboured a bundle of doubts. This bundle of doubts arose because the Magistrate found that the cheques were possibly issued in respect of a transaction which had taken place in the year 2006. The learned Magistrate also therefore found that the cheques were possibly issued for security of the amounts advanced earlier and misused. The learned Magistrate found that there was a 2 APPLN-1207.11 complaint under the Money Lending Act against the complainant and this was the source of the doubt. Now first as to the purchase of stamp paper five months prior to the actual transaction, a person may be keeping blank stamp papers if he may be advancing amounts against negotiable instruments to needy persons. Such advances do not come under the provisions of the Money Lending Act. Therefore, the doubts which led the learned Magistrate to acquit the respondent would require a re- consideration. Hence leave granted. Appeal admitted. Call for the R & P.. Action under Section 390 of Cr.P.C. to follow. The application accordingly stands disposed of. (R.C. CHAVAN, J.)
