I have a controller which takes in an id and checks whether this id exists 
inside the Model. If it does not exist, I would like the controller to 
return a validation error message "id not found" in json when it returns 
the HTTP response. This controller takes in a normal HTTP POST which is not 
in json.

How can this be done in Cakephp 2.4.5?

My controller code looks something like this;

public function controller_function($id=null){
    if ($this->request->is('post')) 
    {
       $field=$this->request->data['Model']['field'];
       $Model_id = $this->Model->findFieldID($field);
       if (empty($Model_id) ) //record not found. Return validation error
       {
           //Send validation error back in JSON. How??
       }
    }}
