In august 2010, the accused issued three cheques of nine million, seven million and five million to PW1, all the cheques were postdated and all bounced on presentation on the grounds that the account on which they were drawn was a dedicated account. I think the above evidence show representation made by the accused to the PW1 that will support a prima facie case of cheating under section 320(b) of the penal code. I believe there is need for the accused person to leave evidence in defence of the charge. I so hold an according dismiss the no case submission. Signed Justice MTM Aliyu 7/03/2017
