Send a reply denying existence of any debt you owe to him.

Contact a local lawyer to send the above reply on your behalf.

See since your friend has no proof against you for any legal debt if he sends you a notice of cheque bounce you can reply same that cheque was wrongly used by him and that he owe no legal debt to you.

1.  Since the Loan cheque was given in name of your Friend (Loan Taker), ONLY & ONLY the friend is liable for the same and NOT you, in any manner whatsoever.

2.  The Loan-Giver Friend CANNOT prosecute you in any manner, whatsoever, specially for cheque bouncing cases, since you do not have legally enforceable liability /debt towards such friend, more specially so since the loan amount would be reflected in the income tax returns of the Loan-Giver Friend against Friend (Loan Taker) and NOT against your name.

3. Even IF a case is filed, THEN you have to simply say you have no legally enforceable liability /debt to the Loan-Giver Friend and that the said blank cheque was lost /misplaced from your office /residence.

As your other friend has already sent your friend a legal notice for dishonour of cheque, there is every likelihood of his filing a suit under the NI Act, in case your other friend ignores the notice. It is better to negotiate and reach a compromise. In any case, your friend has to suitably reply to the notice through an advocate.

Respected sir... 

You must have to talk to him to not process legally... As the biggest question arises here is what is your chaque doing with him how did he get it... And you have no ans for that in court ask your friend to to give him money and yes there are technical points where you can win but for that you have to provide all the details about cheque and truth of all circumstances... 

Thank you

Send a reply to the notice received with the help of an advocate mentioning your points. If the person still files cheque bounce case against you, engage an advocate for the case and contest the case on merit. 

You must file reply to the said notice immediately to save you from future liability. In addition to the same, you must go to the court when summoned and contest the case apprising the court of the true facts of the case and hire a lawyer.

You have to approach the borrower to pay this amount failing which you will be in trouble.

However for the present there's no immediate danger in it but you may face problem if you don't sort it out at earliest.

Dear 

You have to contest the case of cheque bounce because you have given the cheque as guarantor.

Now you can do one thing ask your friend who took the loan to return the loan amount and make settlement with provider of loan and ask him to take his complaint back.
