Pune, Maharashtra · Criminal Defence Lawyer
Pune's criminal matters are handled at the District & Sessions Court at Shivajinagar, Metropolitan Magistrate Courts across Pune city and Pimpri-Chinchwad, and at the Bombay High Court on bail, quashing, and appeal. NyaySevak's Pune criminal lawyers handle cyber-crime, economic-offence, NDPS, and general criminal-defence matters with specialist representation before Pune's active Special PMLA, NDPS, and MCOCA courts.
Pune is Maharashtra's second-largest criminal-court jurisdiction. The District & Sessions Court at Shivajinagar serves Pune city; Pimpri-Chinchwad Court serves the industrial belt. Special PMLA, NDPS, MCOCA, POCSO, and SC/ST Act courts operate at Shivajinagar.
Criminal matters in Pune reach the Bombay HC (not a separate Pune bench — Bombay HC has no Pune bench) for bail, quashing under S.528 BNSS, and appeals. Advocates typically travel to Mumbai for HC appearances; virtual hearings have eased this somewhat.
Pune's criminal bar is active but smaller than Mumbai's. Given Pune's student and IT-workforce demographics, economic offences, cyber-crime, and ragging-related criminal cases are common.
