Conviction quashed because the charge alleged a false representation about a cheque the appellant did not draw (wrong particulars) and the trial judge's Reasons for Verdict were inadequate and in one respect wrong; the court will not substitute fresh particulars or convict of an alternative offence where the trial was conducted on the defective charge and the judge did not make necessary factual findings; proviso and s.83A substitution refused.
