Angad Khanna

Profile description

If you have been arrested and are worried about staying out of jail while your case proceeds, the first question is often whether bail can be secured. Angad Khanna understands how critical that freedom is and can explain the options available under the Punjab and Haryana High Court’s procedure. Whether you need an anticipatory bail before arrest, an interim bail while evidence is gathered, or a default bail after a charge sheet has been filed, Angad Khanna reviews the facts, prepares a concise petition and argues for release. The lawyer also knows how to respond when the prosecution moves to cancel bail, and can file a robust bail cancellation defence to keep you out of lock‑up.

Beyond bail, many criminal matters require formal petitions that go directly to the High Court. Angad Khanna regularly assists clients with high‑court petitions under the court’s inherent jurisdiction, such as applications for transfer of a case within the state when a trial venue is unsuitable. The lawyer prepares the necessary documentation, cites relevant case law and presents arguments that persuade the bench to move the trial to a more favorable forum. When a lower court’s decision appears erroneous, Angad Khanna files criminal revisions, requesting the High Court to examine the legal correctness of the order. These revisions can halt a proceeding, correct a procedural flaw, or even overturn an adverse judgment.

Financial crimes bring their own set of challenges. If you are accused of fraud or cheating, Angad Khanna can craft a defence that highlights lack of intent, procedural lapses in the investigation, or mistaken identity. In cases involving criminal breach of trust, the lawyer examines the contractual relationship and the alleged misappropriation, building a narrative that shows the alleged act was lawful or without dishonest motive. For cyber‑crimes such as hacking, online fraud or data theft, Angad Khanna stays up‑to‑date with the evolving provisions of the Information Technology Act and can argue that the alleged act does not meet the statutory definition of an offence, or that procedural safeguards were ignored during the digital evidence collection.

Sometimes a client’s liberty is threatened not by a criminal charge but by unlawful detention. In such situations, Angad Khanna files habeas corpus petitions in the Punjab and Haryana High Court, demanding that the detaining authority justify the confinement. The lawyer also handles compounding of offences, where the prosecution agrees to settle the matter without a trial, saving time and expense for the client. By negotiating the terms of compounding, the lawyer can often secure a reduced penalty or complete dismissal.

All of these matters may eventually reach the Supreme Court of India, especially when a legal principle of national importance is at stake. Angad Khanna is accustomed to drafting and arguing petitions before the Supreme Court, ensuring that the higher bench receives a clear, concise presentation of the issue. Whether the case involves a bail question, a criminal revision, or a complex cyber‑crime defence, the lawyer prepares the record, cites precedent and argues persuasively to protect the client’s rights.

In every stage of a criminal proceeding, Angad Khanna focuses on clarity and speed. The lawyer meets promptly, gathers evidence, prepares affidavits and coordinates with investigators to challenge weak prosecution material. Clients are kept informed about the progress of bail applications, the status of high‑court petitions and any developments at the Supreme Court level. By translating legal jargon into plain language, Angad Khanna helps clients understand what to expect and which documents to bring to a hearing.

If a case is already before the Punjab and Haryana High Court or moving toward the Supreme Court, Angad Khanna can step in to review the docket, identify missed opportunities and file the appropriate reliefs—be it bail, transfer, revision or a defence against fraud, cheating, breach of trust or cyber‑crime allegations. The lawyer’s familiarity with the courts’ procedures and with the substantive criminal statutes makes it possible to mount an aggressive, well‑grounded defence that aims to protect liberty, reputation and future prospects.
