Manya Khanna

Profile description

If you have been arrested and are facing the prospect of staying behind bars while your case moves forward, the first question that comes to mind is often how to secure release. Manya Khanna, a seasoned criminal lawyer practising before the Punjab and Haryana High Court, understands the urgency of that moment and works immediately to assess whether interim bail, default bail, or a bail cancellation petition can provide the relief you need. By reviewing the facts, the charges and the evidence gathered by the investigating officers, the lawyer can craft a strong argument for why you should not be deprived of liberty before a full trial.

Manya Khanna regularly assists clients who are already out on bail but discover that the court has set conditions they cannot meet, or that a higher authority seeks to withdraw the bail. In such situations, the lawyer files a bail cancellation petition and argues for the continuation of freedom, emphasizing the presumption of innocence and the lack of any flight risk. When a person has never been convicted and the allegations are based on tenuous evidence, the lawyer can also seek an interim bail that provides temporary release while the main trial is pending. By presenting detailed affidavits, relevant medical or personal circumstances, and precedent from the Punjab and Haryana High Court, Manya Khanna aims to keep the client out of custody until the matter is finally resolved.

When a conviction has already been handed down and the penalty is severe, the next step often involves a criminal appeal. Manya Khanna has handled numerous appeals that challenge procedural errors, misinterpretation of law, or insufficient evidence. The lawyer prepares comprehensive written submissions and passionately presents oral arguments before the High Court bench, seeking the reversal of an unfavorable judgment or a reduction in sentencing. In parallel, the lawyer can file a habeas corpus petition when unlawful detention is alleged. By demonstrating that the detention lacks legal basis, the lawyer urges the court to order release, protecting fundamental rights under the Constitution.

Specialised defences are a core strength of Manya Khanna’s practice. In cases of criminal breach of trust, the lawyer investigates the financial records, contracts and communications to reveal gaps in the prosecution’s narrative and to prove that the alleged breach was either unintentional or based on a misunderstanding. For fraud and cheating accusations, the lawyer scrutinises the alleged scheme, traces money flows, and highlights any procedural lapses that undermine the prosecution’s case. Cybercrime defence is another focus area; whether the allegation involves hacking, identity theft, or online fraud, Manya Khanna works with digital forensic experts, challenges the admissibility of electronic evidence and explains complex technical concepts in a way the court can understand. By combining legal acumen with a practical grasp of technology, the lawyer positions the client for the best possible outcome.

Every matter that reaches the Punjab and Haryana High Court requires a clear strategy, precise documentation and timely filing. Manya Khanna follows a methodical approach: an initial case audit, followed by a tailored legal roadmap that aligns with the client’s objectives. The lawyer keeps the client informed at each stage, explains the likely scenarios, and advises on the most effective steps to protect liberty and reputation.
