Sec.138 NI Act: Court Convicts BJP Lawmaker in Cheque Bounce Case, awards 4 years Jail term

 

BJP MLA from Mudigere, M.P. Kumaraswamy was reportedly convicted in a cheque bounce case by a special court for people’s representatives on Monday.

Kumaraswamy had borrowed Rs 1.35 crore from Hoovappa Gowda and had furnished 8 cheques for its repayment. However, these cheques had bounced, following which Goda filed a court case.

Justice J Preet, who heard the case, held M P Kumaraswamy guilty and sentenced him to six months in jail for each of the eight cheque bounce instances.

If the loan amount is not paid immediately, the MLA will have to serve 4 years in jail.
