You should have obtained a lawyer's advice before obtaining his signature on the promissory date as he would have told you the contents of the promissory note.
Now let your friend give you under his signature an acknowledgment receipt of the loan.
Promissory Note may be written or typed,but content of note should be as per law,claiming of interest need license from competent authority.However if you want to return bank the principal amount then you can file a money suit with Promissory Note in Civil Court.----------------------------M.Bhadra,advocate at Kolkata
