Tharun Sahu

Profile description

As an NRI, dealing with a criminal matter that originates in India can be fraught with logistical and legal challenges. When the case escalates to a point where a Special Leave Petition (SLP) or an appeal before the Supreme Court of India becomes necessary, Tharun Sahu offers specialized assistance tailored to the cross‑border complexities of NRI clients.

Tharun Sahu has built a practice over more than ten years that focuses on NRI criminal matters, handling SLPs that challenge lower‑court convictions, bail orders, and procedural missteps. The advocate’s familiarity with the Supreme Court’s procedural nuances enables the lawyer to present a clear and compelling case, even when the client is located abroad. By scrutinizing the factual record and identifying jurisdictional or evidentiary flaws, Tharun Sahu regularly assists NRIs in obtaining Supreme Court leave to review adverse decisions.

The first step in the process is a detailed consultation that captures the timeline of events, the nature of the charges, and any correspondence with Indian courts. Tharun Sahu then analyzes whether the Supreme Court’s jurisdiction can be invoked and what fresh material, if any, can be introduced. The lawyer prepares a concise SLP or appeal, integrating relevant statutes, precedent, and any procedural irregularities that affected the original proceedings. Success stories include overturning wrongful convictions that resulted from misinterpreted foreign‑exchange regulations and securing stay orders that allowed clients to travel while their appeals were pending.

Communication is a cornerstone of the practice. Tharun Sahu explains each procedural milestone in plain language, ensuring that clients abroad understand filing deadlines, hearing formats, and possible outcomes. The advocate coordinates with local representatives, arranges for document translation when required, and provides timely updates on any Supreme Court orders or hearings. Clients frequently note the lawyer’s proactive approach and the reassurance that comes from having an expert manage the case across continents.

If a criminal case in India threatens your freedom, reputation, or financial security, Tharun Sahu can evaluate whether an NRI‑focused SLP or appeal is the appropriate remedy. The lawyer will outline the strengths of your position, prepare a persuasive petition, and advocate before the justices with a clear grasp of both Indian criminal law and the unique aspects of NRI litigation. By leveraging deep experience and a proven record of securing favorable Supreme Court rulings, the advocate works to protect your rights and achieve the best possible outcome.
