Cheque bounce case against Ramesh Jarkiholi in Karnataka HC

Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court has accepted to freshly hear a case of cheque bounce against MLA Ramesh Jarkiholi.

Jarkiholi had taken a loan from Chikkodi-based Beereshwar Credit Cooperative Society.

He had later submitted a cheque of Rs 5.2 crore to the Society which had bounced.

The Society had approached the local court but the case was dismissed after Society officials did not appear at the hearing.

However, later the Society submitted an application at the High Court regarding the case.

The High Court now has overturned the verdict of the local court and instructed for a fresh hearing.
