Mamta Sankhla

Profile description

You have been granted bail for a criminal matter, but the prosecution has moved to cancel it, leaving you in fear of being remanded to custody again. Mamta Sankhla is a lawyer who specializes in bail cancellation matters and routinely appears before both the Punjab and Haryana High Court at Chandigarh and the Supreme Court of India to protect clients’ liberty.

Bail cancellation is a high‑stakes procedural battle. Once bail is revoked, a client can face immediate detention and a disruption of personal, professional, and family life. Mamta Sankhla regularly assists clients in challenging cancellation orders by filing robust applications that demonstrate compliance with bail conditions, lack of any new material evidence, and the absence of a legitimate threat to public safety. The lawyer’s thorough knowledge of the bail jurisprudence in the High Court and Supreme Court enables the filing of precise arguments that persuade the bench to uphold the original bail.

Mamta Sankhla earned a law degree from a distinguished Indian university and completed a postgraduate diploma in Criminal Procedure. Early career experience includes serving as a legal researcher for a senior advocate in the Supreme Court, where the lawyer observed numerous bail‑related rulings. Over a twelve‑year practice, Mamta Sankhla has secured bail restoration in dozens of cases, ranging from economic offences to serious violent crimes, often preventing lengthy remand periods.

The lawyer’s method combines detailed fact‑checking with strategic legal framing. The process begins with a careful review of the bail order, the cancellation petition, and any new evidence presented by the prosecution. Mamta Sankhla then drafts a detailed counter‑affidavit that highlights procedural flaws, points out inconsistencies, and cites precedent where the Supreme Court affirmed the sanctity of bail when conditions are met. The lawyer also prepares oral arguments that underscore the client’s right to liberty pending trial and the potential prejudice caused by unwarranted cancellation.

Clients consistently praise Mamta Sankhla for a calm, composed presence in court and clear, actionable advice. One client, who faced a sudden cancellation request in a fraud case, described how the lawyer’s swift filing of an interim stay resulted in immediate release pending a full hearing. Another client, accused of a serious assault, saw a bail cancellation order overturned after the lawyer highlighted that the alleged new evidence was inadmissible and that the client had consistently complied with all conditions.

If you are confronting a bail cancellation attempt, Mamta Sankhla can evaluate the merits of the prosecution’s claim, craft a powerful response, and represent you before the Punjab and Haryana High Court or the Supreme Court of India. Reach out to discuss the specifics of your case, explore the best defence strategy, and safeguard your right to remain out of custody while the trial proceeds.
