Crimeophobia, founded in 2010 by Criminologist Snehil Dhall—a first-generation entrepreneur and global expert—is a trailblazer in criminology and strategic security. With education across India, Singapore, and the UK, and global engagements with the United Nations General Assembly (New York) and Incredible India, Ministry of Tourism (Gothenburg), he has redefined crime prevention. A former member of the International Institute of Strategic Studies (London), Dhall has worked with world leaders in defence, foreign affairs, and intelligence. Recognised by the United Nations for driving the implementation of the UNTOC treaty in India, his work integrates predictive analytical policing and criminology innovation. Crimeophobia operates as a TRL-9 model—an essential framework for governments and corporates tackling transnational and localized organized crime. With expertise across real estate, fashion, F&B, media, and law, Snehil has delivered intelligence-led strategies since 2003, managing both Indian and UK-based businesses. Crimeophobia serves clients ranging from 6-year-old children to senior citizens, with a core focus on the corporate sector, families, and government bodies—while also handling probono cases through its CSR division, the Ministry of Happiness, a registered Trust dedicated to supporting vulnerable communities and promoting justice with compassion. His remote investigation methods, confessional techniques using criminal psychology, and inclusive support for all genders and communities have revolutionized modern crime-solving. Guided by his original theories—Theory of Modern Chakravyuh and Polymath Theory of Organised Crime—and his concepts of Post Crime Trauma and Criminal Behaviour Syndrome, he brings a multidisciplinary approach to security and justice across seven domains: Crime, Culture, Social, Terrorism, Politics, Media, and Policing. Join Crimeophobia—where criminology meets global strategy, transforming justice with intelligence.

WORDS FROM THE FOUNDER: Crime, in its modern form, is no longer confined to acts or individuals; it has evolved into a complex intersection of behaviour, systems, institutions, ideologies, and transnational structures. My work in criminology has consistently reinforced one principle: lasting resolution is never achieved through reaction alone. It requires understanding intent, decoding patterns, and intervening at the right moment with precision, legality, and restraint. Crimeophobia was established to function in precisely that space—where complexity is high, visibility must remain low, and outcomes carry long-term institutional consequences. The firm was not designed as a conventional advisory or investigative practice. It was structured as an endgame institution, capable of supporting decision-makers when matters demand clarity, discretion, and closure rather than prolonged contestation. Our approach is grounded in scientific criminology, behavioural intelligence, and field experience, applied within the framework of domestic and international law.

Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work across jurisdictions and sectors, engaging with law enforcement agencies, judicial institutions, corporate leadership, policy stakeholders, and community systems. These engagements have shaped a methodology that integrates intelligence-led analysis with strategic legal intervention, always mindful that the ultimate objective is institutional stability and human security, not escalation. Whether the context involves organised crime, financial and economic offences, ideological crime, or systemic governance failure, the focus remains on lawful resolution and risk containment. Crimeophobia’s institutional philosophy is built on balance. While decisive intervention is sometimes necessary to dismantle criminal structures and protect institutions, equal emphasis must be placed on understanding the human and organisational impact of crime. Sustainable order is achieved when enforcement is complemented by prevention, rehabilitation, and governance reform. This balance informs the broader ecosystem within which Crimeophobia operates, ensuring that our work contributes to long-term resilience rather than short-term outcomes.

The strength of Crimeophobia is not limited to any single individual. It is reinforced by a Board of Advisors comprising subject experts who are widely recognised as pioneers and trend setters in their respective professional domains. Their collective insight ensures that our work remains interdisciplinary, forward-looking, and aligned with evolving legal, technological, and governance challenges. The Board’s role is central in maintaining intellectual rigor, ethical standards, and strategic depth across all engagements. Crimeophobia is typically engaged in an advisory capacity at the level of senior leadership, supporting managing directors, chairpersons, boards, and decision-makers who require independent, evidence-driven insight to navigate complex legal, security, and reputational landscapes. Our role is to strengthen informed decision-making while respecting institutional autonomy, confidentiality, and the rule of law. In a world where crime increasingly operates across borders and within systems, the responsibility of those addressing it must be measured, informed, and principled. Crimeophobia exists to serve that responsibility—quietly, lawfully, and decisively—by applying criminology not as theory alone, but as a strategic tool for resolution, balance, and sustainable order.
