I received a signed cheque, filled in with my name, date, and amount. However, the cheque bounced, and now the person who gave it to me is avoiding me. The cheque is also missing. I’m innocent and need help.

You can file a complaint with the police for dishonor of cheque under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. Additionally, you can approach the court to recover the amount of the cheque along with compensation for the mental harassment and loss incurred.
