seeks bail after arrest in Crime No.646/2021, registered under Sections 420/468/471/470/489-F/34 PPC---Coming to the allegations of three cheques, which were later on dishonored, a question as to what constitutes an offense under Section 489-F, P.P.C. primarily, every transaction where a cheque is dishonored may not constitute an offense.
