SURAT: The additional senior civil judge and additional chief judicial megistrate (Surat) issued non-bailable warrant (NBW) against Ashaben Pavasiya who has been convicted for two-year imprisonment under Negotiable Instrument Act in cheque dishonor case.
Court also ordered Ashaben to pay Rs 5 lakh to the complainant, Haroon Rasid Sheikh, within 30 days of the order.
While pronouncing the judgement on December 21, the court issued a non-bailable warrant against her for not appearing in the court proceedings.
According to the case, Ashaben Pavasiya, a resident of Katargam, is a businesswoman and sells readymade ladies garments and sarees on the name of First Look Designer and Panghat Designer in Surat. She needed some money for her business and therefore she took Rs 2.50 lakh money from Haroon Sheikh and Rs 7.50 lakh from his son Anwar as hand loan in 2017.
Surat: A 40-year-old man was convicted in a cheque bounce case and was ordered jail term of eight months besides paying the victim twice the amount he owed within 30 days of the order.

When Yashraj demanded this money back, Mukesh issued a cheque in June 2017 as repayment. The cheque was, however, dishonoured and Maurya lodged a complaint against Prasad under Negotiable Instrument Act.
