SENSITIVE : Long story.. short!

In Feb, me and my partner along with another acquaintance(From 2 years) opened a cafe in Bangalore. Everything was going good except for hiccups in-between, the usual conflicts and misunderstanding. Me and my partner really worked hard for the cafe, put our heart and soul into it. The GST is in the name of third person since he is already running a business on it and told us we can use it. We started inviting people to the cafe for tasting sessions and feedback. We were about to official launch until one day.. Since customers were coming in, we started charging minimal amount. The third person's acquaintances came in and I asked if they had paid infront of his other friends who wouldn't even have heard what I asked. He in return asked if my friend had paid for the coffee, I said yes. I am not sure what triggered his so much or if it was all planned from starting, the very next day afternoon he brought around 10-15 localities who were drunk. We three girls were sitting in the cafe and my partner and other guy friends were not present at the moment. Once my partner came in, He took out a file and said I went to the lawyer, police and minister and this is my cafe here after. You guys can go out. The file consisted of rental agreement which is in all of our names, food license, gst and all other bills in his name. He hit both of us there itself and started shouting. Then after a big scene happened, the police came but that guy took police to the side and spoke something, not sure what that was about. He gave two cheques to both of us on the day itself. He just bought time and cleared one cheque, the other cheque he himself told the bank to bounce it. Not sure what he is plotting. I just wanted to leave everything whatever happened and continue with life. But the emotional turmoil, the hitting, the post incident scenes everything is in my eyes still. And above all, the amount of work and passion we put into our project, everything was chosen and done by both of us.
