I borrowed ₹1.1 lakhs from a friend in March 2015, promising to repay within two months. However, I faced difficulties and couldn’t repay on time. Under pressure, I signed a blank promissory note and issued a check for ₹1 lakh, which bounced. My friend sent a notice demanding ₹1 lakh for the bounced check and ₹5 lakhs based on the promissory note. They claim I intentionally wrote the wrong amount on the note. If they file a cheating case, will I be immediately arrested, or will I receive a summons from court? Can they also file a recovery suit?

Based on Indian laws, you will likely receive a summons from court rather than being immediately arrested for a cheating case. However, the bounced check case might lead to your arrest. Your friend can also file a recovery suit for the remaining amount.
