Subsequently, the petitioner did not return the amounts and on the basis of the complaint given by the defacto complainant, the present case has been registered for the aforesaid offences. 3.

The case of the petitioner is that the petitioner was originally trying for medical seat for his son and at that time, the defacto complainant and his friend approached the petitioner and canvassed that they have friends in Vinayaga Medical College, Salem and they will arrange for medical seat in Vinayaga Medical College and on believing their words, the petitioner sent a sum of Rs.10,30,000/- to the account of the defacto complainant. Subsequently, he came to know that the amount was not given to Vinayaga Medical College and therefore, he could not get medical seat for his son and the petitioner is an innocent person and he has not committed any offence.
