On what date the cheque bounced?

Whether the communication between you both is oral, or through email or by any other mode?

On 25 June 2018, cheque was bounced. 

I transferred 1 lakh on 18 feb, 2018.

I have phone call recordings of everything.

He sent me cheque through post, and a letter along with it, requesting to settle the dispute. both have same signature but wrong one.

Police was involved in this matter, there was no FIR but a police compaint, and we gave him 4 month time to return money.

We can talk on phone, if you wish.

I have phone call recordings of everything. The same phone number which is in bank and aadhar, I have phone call recordings related to the deal to buy bitcoin and also of talks related to settle the dispute via cheque, he requested to un-freeze bank account so that he can return the remaining money.

He sent me cheque through a private post, and a hand-written letter along with it, requesting to settle the dispute. both have same signature but wrong one.

Police was involved in this matter, there was no FIR but a police compaint, and we gave him 4 month time to return money. And formally case was closed as I told them that I have recieved a cheque of 37000 INR, and 65000 through online transfer.

We can talk on phone, if you wish.

1. You have to issue a Statutory notice u/s. 138 WITHIN 30 days of the receipt of information  from the bank regarding the return of the cheque as unpaid.  For this better take help of a local lawyer.

2. If the payment is not received by you from your friend within 15 of the receipt of the notice by him, you have to file a Complaint under Section 138 in the appropriate Jurisdictional Magistrate Court, within one month when your friend fails to make the payment.

Ok, is it a criminal case or civil case. Should I go for cheque bounce case only, or include the attempt of fraud in which he failed.
