This appeal has been preferred by the complainant in
S.T.No.157 of 2009 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate
Court-IV, Kollam. After the trial of the said case, the learned
Magistrate found the accused guilty of the offence punishable under
Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act (for short “N.I. Act”),
and he was convicted and sentenced to undergo simple
imprisonment for a period of one month and to pay a fine of
Rs.1,00,000/-. However, subsequently, after considering the appeal
preferred by the accused, the learned Additional Sessions Judge,
Kollam, vide order dated 30.10.2013, set aside the judgment
passed by the learned Magistrate and acquitted the accused.
Challenging the said judgment of acquittal rendered in the
above-said case, the complainant approached this Court with the
present appeal. The parties in this appeal shall be referred to as
the complainant and the accused hereafter.
