Cheque issued from a Gurugaon form on a Gurgaon branch of ICICI, My sister living in Delhi presented in her Delhi branch of HDFC which bounced. She filed case in a Delhi court. Will this lead to accused raising territory issues and avoid conviction?

Dear Ankit,
All the acts were done at Delhi, so Delhi Courts have Jurisdiction.

This is a criminal case and not for civil recovery so the case can be filed ONLY where the cheque has bounced and AT no other place.
If defense advocate is expereinced , it will be the first objection before further steps in the case.
Advocate Bhartesh goyal (advocate) 22 May 2013
Court having jurisdiction to try the case of cheque bouncing where any one of act is done
Supreme Court has ruled while deciding the case A.I.R 1999 S.C 3762 K.Bhaskaran vs Sankaran that the court has jurisdiction to try the case where any one of the five acts is done
{1}Drawing of the cheque
{2}Presentation of cheque to the bank
{3}Returning of the cheque unpaid by the drawee bank
{4}Giving notice in writing to the drawer of
cheque demanding payment of the cheque amount
{5}Failure of the drawer to make payment within 15 days of receipt of notice.
so Delhi court has jurisdiction to try the case.

Bhaskaran case is old case and it has been magnified and simplified in recent SC judgements.
FROM FEW OF VERY RECENT SC JUDGMENTS.-
1) We regret that such a principle cannot be applied in a criminal case.
Advocate Bhartesh goyal (advocate) 26 May 2013
A.I.R 1999 S.C 3762 K.Bhaskaran vs Sankaran has not been overruled till today.Even Supreme Court has followed the said judgment in various recent .judgments i.e Smt Shamshad Begam vs B.Mohmmed 2008 civil cout cases 567 [S.C],M/S Harman Electronics Pvt Ltd vs M/S National Panasonic India Ltd 2009 [1]civil court cases464 [S.C]
Jurisdiction to try the N.I Act cases are specificaly. determined in Bhaskaran case
