RGV Challenges Court: Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma has filed a petition in the Dindoshi Sessions Court. Against the order of the Judicial Magistrate sentencing him to three months imprisonment in the check-bouncing case. Last month, the Metropolitan Magistrate Court of Andheri convicted Ram Gopal Varma’s firm. In a check bouncing case filed by a Vile Parle-based firm. Since Ram Gopal Varma was absent from the court, Now the court also issued a non-bailable warrant against him.
Ram Gopal Varma had challenged the order before the Sessions Court earlier this month. The appeal was heard on Thursday, in which his lawyer sought bail for the filmmaker and sought suspension of the sentence. The Sessions Court judge has issued notice to the complainant and scheduled the hearing of the case for next month.
The complaint was filed by a firm named ‘Shri’ through one of its partners Mahesh Chandra Mishra in 2018. Its counsel Rajesh Kumar Patel and Alok Singh had argued that the company has been engaged in the business of providing hard disks for the past several years. The firm had supplied hard disks to Verma’s company from February 2018 to March 2018. For which the complainant had raised a bill of Rs 2,38,220.
However, on June 1, 2018, when the complainant deposited the cheque given by Ram Gopal Varma to pay the dues, it bounced due to insufficient funds. When the complainant approached Verma, he gave a second cheque, which too bounced due to stop payment by the drawer. Hence, the complainant claimed that he filed a criminal complaint for cheque bouncing in the Magistrate Court, Andheri. The filmmaker had disputed that the cheques did not bear his signature and were not issued by him. However, the magistrate rejected his claim, saying, ‘He did not find any material to show a possible defence by the accused.’
