Hi
Accused convicted N.I 138, cheque amount 4 Lacs, compensation announced 6 lacs along with six month imprisonment in trail court, and his appeal dismissed in session & high court.
He was sentenced for imprisonment and accused in custody I have filed execution petition for recovery of fine, recovery warrant issued from court if still nothing recoverable or accused willingly not pay anything is still he will be sentenced for imprisonment for non payment and if yes for how many months he can be sentenced.
