Recently Bollywood actress Ameesha Patel was granted bail in the cheque bounce case and has broken her silence alleging that he ‘spread an environment of bias by creating a public spectacle’, reported Hindustan Times. Earlier on Saturday, in connection with the cheque bounce case, Ameesha Patel surrendered before the Ranchi Civil Court. Asking her to appear before the court personally again on 21 June, senior division judge DN Shukla granted Ameesha bail.
As per details, the case dates back to 2018 when Jharkhand-based film producer Ajay Kumar Singh registered a case of fraud and cheque bounce against Ameesha.
She also added, “The judicial system will finally handle the false complaint that was filed with ulterior purposes. The Honourable Supreme Court has halted the proceedings for fraud and breach of trust because it is seeing it through as it should.
As per the complaint, Ajay had transferred ₹2.5 crores to the actor’s bank account for the production of a movie titled Desi Magic. However, Ameesha did not proceed with the film later and sent a cheque of ₹2.50 crore but it had bounced.
But said the proceedings for offenses are punishable under Section 138 (cheque bounce) of the Negotiable Instruments Act and the civil court can continue by the law. The Supreme Court’s order came on an appeal filed by Ameesha against the 5 May 2022, order of the Jharkhand High Court. It dismissed the plea seeking quashing and setting aside of the order by the trial court in Ranchi, in connection with a complaint against her, the report added.
