How can I deal when I lost cheque signed by me and someone filed cheque bounce case?

I have lost a signed cheque with amount filled. I have filled FIR online for the same. Two years later , someone presented that cheque in bank and the cheque bounced with insufficient balance. Now I received summon from court for execution of warrant against me against some judgement. What should I do now ?

  1. Inform your bank immediately. Your bank will be able to put a stop payment on the cheque, preventing it from being cashed.
  2. Contact the police. The police will be able to investigate the theft of the cheque and try to identify the person who tried to cash it.
  3. Appear in court. If you receive a summon from the court, you must appear on the date specified in the summon. If you do not appear, the court may issue a warrant for your arrest.
