whether is there any compromise decree?  If you have got decree then meet the Divisional Manager of the ins., co., and request him to release the cheque, but the cheque will be deposited in the court by the co., then you will have to file an application for relase of amount.

If co., is failed to respond you then file an execution petition to recover the amount.
