    On maximum evaluation the prosecution failed to prove the essential elements of section 417: there was no clear evidence the accused deceived and intentionally induced the complainant to surrender the title; the transaction was consensual/security or sale to the lender and inconsistencies favoured the accused; mere breach of contract does not amount to cheating; therefore no prima facie case and accused acquitted and discharged.
