Delhi court sets aside summon order in cheque bounce case

Delhi court sets aside summon order in cheque bounce case

A man named Pranshu Aggarwal was told by a smaller court that he had to stand trial in court.

The case was about a trust and some checks that were not paid.

When a check is not paid, it is sometimes called a bounced check.

The checks were worth about 5.75 crore rupees, which is a lot of money.

Aggarwal said he should not be blamed because he did not sign the checks.

A bigger court in Delhi agreed with him.

The judge explained that a trust is not the same as a company under the law.

The rule that makes company leaders responsible for bounced checks does not apply to trusts.

The court also said there was no proof Aggarwal was a trustee or held any job in the trust.

So the order to put him on trial was canceled, but the case will still continue against the other people accused.
