Why Sidhant Dhingra & Associates is Delhi’s Top Choice for Criminal Defense

When it comes to criminal law, the stakes are incredibly high. Whether you are facing charges related to white-collar crime, narcotics, cybercrime, or serious offenses under the Indian Penal Code (IPC), your lawyer’s expertise can make all the difference. Siddhant Dhingra & Associates is a leading Criminal law firm in Delhi, widely known for its top-notch criminal defence practice. Known for its strategic approach and in-depth legal knowledge, the firm has earned its reputation as one of the top criminal law firms in the capital.

Why Choose a Top Criminal Lawyer in Delhi?

The complexity of criminal law and its procedural demands require a legal team that not only understands the nuances of the law but also knows how to effectively navigate the court system. In criminal cases, whether it is obtaining bail, devising a defence strategy, or cross-examining witnesses, accuracy and experience are crucial. The role of a criminal defence lawyer is to ensure that your rights are protected, evidence is examined and the best possible outcome is achieved.

Cases such as State of Uttar Pradesh v Satish (2005), where the Supreme Court overturned a conviction due to insufficient evidence, clearly demonstrate the importance of a skilled criminal lawyer. Sidhant Dhingra & Associates specialise in identifying such shortcomings in the prosecution's case to defend their clients.

Areas of Criminal Law Expertise at Sddhant Dhingra & Associates

White-collar crimesWhite-collar crimes such as fraud, embezzlement, money laundering and corporate fraud have become more prevalent, often involving complex legal and financial issues. Siddhant Dhingra & Associates has rich experience in handling cases under the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and various sections of the IPC relating to financial crimes.For instance, in the high-profile INX Media case, the Supreme Court investigated the misappropriation of funds by corporate executives, illustrating how complex white-collar cases can be. The firm specializes in representing individuals and corporations facing similar investigations by agencies such as the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

Cybercrime defenceCybercrime is a rapidly growing area of criminal law, involving crimes such as hacking, identity theft, online fraud and data breaches. The firm handles cases under the Information Technology Act, 2000, defending clients against allegations of cyber fraud and data theft. A notable case is Shreya Singhal v. Union of India (2015), where the Supreme Court struck down Section 66A of the IT Act, declaring it unconstitutional for violating free speech rights. In cases involving digital evidence, Sidhant Dhingra & Associates is known for its technical acumen and ability to challenge faulty cybercrime investigations.

Narcotics and drug-related crimesOffences under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act (NDPS) carry severe penalties, including long-term imprisonment and heavy fines. Sidhant Dhingra & Associates has successfully defended clients in high-profile narcotics cases, ensuring fair trials and protection of their constitutional rights. In Gurbaksh Singh Sibbia v State of Punjab (1980), the Supreme Court emphasised the importance of personal liberty in deciding bail applications, a principle the firm strongly upholds for its clients.

Bail and Anticipatory BailSecuring bail, especially in serious offences, is often one of the first challenges faced in criminal proceedings. Sidhant Dhingra & Associates is highly skilled in obtaining bail and anticipatory bail for clients in both lower courts and the supreme court advocate. In Sanjay Chandra v CBI (2011), the Supreme Court affirmed that bail is the rule and prison is the exception, a principle the firm consistently applies to protect clients from unreasonable pre-trial detention.The firm is also highly experienced in handling criminal appeals and revisions in the High Court and Supreme Court. Criminal appeals often involve re-examining the trial court’s decision to ensure justice is done. For example, in Navneet Kaur v State of NCT Delhi (2014), the Supreme Court commuted the death sentence of the accused based on mitigating factors ignored by the trial court. Sidhant Dhingra & Associates specialises in identifying such critical factors, ensuring that each client receives a fair and just trial.

Economic Crimes and FraudEconomic crimes such as corporate fraud, embezzlement and insider trading have a significant impact on individuals and businesses. The firm represents clients in complex fraud cases, including those prosecuted under the Companies Act, 2013 and the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) Act, 1992. For example, in the NSEL scam, the legal proceedings required an intricate understanding of financial regulations, in which Sidhant Dhingra & Associates excels.The firm has been involved in numerous landmark cases, many of which have had a lasting impact on Indian criminal law. One such case was the successful defence of a business executive accused of insider trading, where the firm argued that the prosecution's evidence was circumstantial and insufficient. In another instance, the firm secured an acquittal for a client in a high-profile Criminal case where evidence had been mishandled by investigating officers.

Why Siddhant Dhingra & Associates is the top criminal lawyer in Delhi?

Sidhant Dhingra & Associates has many years of experience in criminal law, covering a wide range of crimes. The firm's deep understanding of the IPC, Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) and special laws such as the ED Case, NDPS Cases and PMLA ensures that clients receive the best possible defence. Strategic and analytical approach the firm is known for its systematic approach to case preparation, which includes in-depth legal research, thorough examination of evidence and strategic planning. Whether cross-examining witnesses or presenting complex legal arguments, Sidhant Dhingra & Associates leaves no stone unturned in the pursuit of justice. Client-centric focus Criminal charges can be life-changing, and the firm prioritises understanding the client's situation to provide personalised legal services.

Advocate Sidhant Dhingra and his team are known for their strong courtroom presence, persuasive arguments and ability to debunk the prosecution's case. Whether defending a high-profile white-collar criminal or an individual in a narcotics case, the firm's courtroom advocacy is unmatched.

[ad_1] GG News Bureau New Delhi, 14th Oct. The Supreme Court on Monday granted bail to Hyderabad-based businessman Abhishek Boinpally in connection with a money laundering case linked to the alleged Delhi excise policy scam. A bench comprising Justices M M Sundresh and Aravind Kumar made a previous interim bail order permanent. The Enforcement Directorate (ED), represented by Additional Solicitor General SV Raju, did not oppose the bail request. “We are inclined to grant him bail,” stated the bench. The apex court had initially granted Boinpally interim bail on March 20, noting that he had been in custody for 18 months. His release on interim bail was extended several times, most recently on August 13. As part of the bail conditions, Boinpally was required to surrender his passport and restrict his movements to the National Capital Region, except for travel to Hyderabad. Boinpally had challenged his 2022 arrest, contesting a July 3, 2023, Delhi High Court order that dismissed his petition regarding the legality of the arrest. He argued non-compliance with Section 19 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), which outlines the procedure for arrests based on evidence of suspected offenses. The Delhi excise policy for 2021-22, implemented in November 2021, was scrapped in September 2022 amid corruption allegations. The CBI and the ED claim that the policy’s modifications involved irregularities and undue benefits for license holders. The money laundering case against Boinpally stems from a CBI FIR, initiated following a recommendation by Delhi Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena to investigate the alleged corruption. Boinpally is accused of participating in secret meetings and conspiring to launder money alongside another accused, Sameer Mahendru, a liquor businessman. [ad_2] Source link

Hindenburg news: Congress demands Centre to ‘eliminate all conflicts…’; TMC asks ‘will CBI, ED file cases?’ - Notice Global Online https://www.merchant-business.com/hindenburg-news-congress-demands-centre-to-eliminate-all-conflicts-tmc-asks-will-cbi-ed-file-cases/?feed_id=161998&_unique_id=66b83d21e1841 #GLOBAL - BLOGGER BLOGGER Hours after US short-seller Hindenburg Research levelled allegations against Sebi chairperson Madhabi Buch, the Congress on Saturday asked the Central government to immediately eliminate all conflicts of interest in the regulator’s investigation of the Adani Group.Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh, in an official statement, said the Sebi’s “strange reluctance” to investigate the “Adani mega scam” has been long noted, not least by the Supreme Court’s Expert Committee.“Under public pressure, after the Adani horse had bolted, SEBI’s board reintroduced stricter reporting rules on 28 June 2023. It told the Supreme Court’s Expert Committee on 25 August 2023 that it was investigating 13 suspicious transactions. Yet the investigations never bore fruit,” the Congress leader added.He stated that Hindenburg Research’s revelations on Saturday indicate that Buch and her husband invested in the same offshore funds based in Bermuda and Mauritius, where “Vinod Adani and his close associates, Chang Chung-Ling and Nasser Ali Shahban Ahli, had also invested money obtained from the over-invoicing of power equipment.”“The government must act immediately to eliminate all conflicts of interest in the SEBI investigation of Adani. The fact is that the seeming complicity of the highest officials of the land can only be resolved by setting up a JPC (joint parliamentary committee) to investigate the full scope of the Adani mega scam,” he said.Similarly, Trinamool Congress leader Mahua Moitra also said, “crony capitalism is at its finest”. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Moitra wrote, “In true Adani style – even SEBI Chairman is investor in his group.”“Crony Capitalism at its finest. @CBiHeadquarters&@Dir_ED – will you be filing POCA and PMLA cases or not?” she asked.Google News What does Hindenburg’s new report say?Hindenburg Research has released an exclusive new report implicating SEBI chairperson Madhabi Puri Buch in the ‘Adani money siphoning scandal.’ This report follows more than a year after Hindenburg first accused the Adani Group of insider trading and other stock market violations—allegations consistently denied by the conglomerate led by Gautam Adani.The latest report highlights an offshore Mauritius fund called IPE Plus Fund, reportedly established by Vinod Adani through India Infoline. It also references the Bermuda-based Global Dynamic Opportunities Fund, which invested in IPE Plus Fund 1. Vinod Adani, a Dubai-based businessman and the elder brother of Gautam Adani, is still connected to the Adani Group.“We had previously noted Adani’s total confidence in continuing to operate without the risk of serious regulatory intervention, suggesting that this may be explained through his relationship with the SEBI Chairperson. What we hadn’t realized: the current SEBI Chairperson and her husband, Dhaval Buch, had hidden stakes in the exact same obscure offshore Bermuda and Mauritius funds, found in the same complex nested structure, used by Vinod Adani,” the report said.Google News What did Hindenburg’s previous report say?Last January, Hindenburg Research, known for shorting companies like electric truck maker Nikola Corp and Twitter (now X), accused the Adani Group of orchestrating “the largest con in corporate history.” The report claimed that the conglomerate used a complex network of offshore companies in tax havens to inflate revenues and manipulate stock prices while accumulating significant debt.Despite the Adani Group’s strong denial of these accusations, the report caused a sharp decline in the group’s stock prices, erasing over USD 150 billion in market value across its 10 listed companies at their lowest point.

However, most of these companies have since recovered their losses.Following the Hindenburg report, the Supreme Court of India directed the market regulator SEBI to investigate and formed an expert panel to examine potential regulatory lapses. The panel did not issue any negative findings against Adani, and the Supreme Court concluded that no additional investigations were necessary beyond SEBI’s ongoing inquiry.SEBI informed the Supreme Court-appointed panel that it was investigating 13 opaque offshore entities holding between 14% and 20% in five publicly traded stocks of the conglomerate. It remains unclear if these two ongoing investigations have since been completed.(With inputs from agencies)Catch all the Budget News , Business News , Breaking News Events and Latest News Updates on Live Mint.

Arvind Kejriwal Granted Bail: Delhi CM Released Amidst Ongoing Excise Policy Controversy

Supreme Court's Interim Bail: On July 12, 2024, the Supreme Court granted interim bail to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in a money laundering case linked to an alleged excise policy scam. This decision raised significant questions regarding the Enforcement Directorate's (ED) authority to arrest individuals under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and emphasized the necessity of judicial scrutiny in such arrests.

Ongoing Legal Challenges: Despite the Supreme Court's interim bail, Kejriwal remains incarcerated due to a subsequent arrest by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on June 26, 2024. The CBI has labeled him the "sutradhaar" (mastermind) of the liquor policy case, asserting that his arrest was crucial for the investigation.

Delhi High Court Proceedings: The Delhi High Court is currently deliberating on Kejriwal's bail plea in the CBI case. The court has reserved its judgment after hearing arguments from both the CBI, which claims to have substantial evidence against him, and Kejriwal's defense, which argues that the arrest is based on hearsay and lacks direct evidence.

Legal Implications: The Supreme Court's ruling has broader implications for the enforcement of the PMLA, particularly regarding the conditions under which arrests can be made. The court highlighted that the exercise of arrest powers must be carefully scrutinized to prevent misuse and to protect individual rights.
