go to the financier and explain the position and ask them to give time.

engage a lawyer . cheque bouncing cases take long time to be decided o n account of huge backlog of cases unless it is referred to fast track court .
you have atleast 2 years time to settle

Engage a lawyer, get a bail, rest what Mr.Sethi said,,,
you have almost 2 years to give back the money....
dont worry about the interest just pay the 2 lakh amount... courts in order to dispose the case faster sometimes ask the complainant to take the money and forge the interest...

Dear Rajendra Prasad
i am agree with the above expert opinion, if you want some time then fight the case no need to worry, get bail and as per my view you can get 2-10 years time for repayment.
feel free to call
