The above crime was registered for the offence under Sections 420 r/w 34 IPC. It is alleged that the petitioner and another took an amount of Rs.5 lakhs from the 3rd respondent by promising that they will provide job to him. But the petitioner and other accused did not provide any job to the 3rd respondent. When the 3rd respondent asked to return the amount paid by him, the petitioner issued a cheque and the said cheque was dishonoured.
