I would say what I did before raise the exception on the new and then trap that exception on the caller and do the redirect there.

In one particular circumstance, it may be that the SQL command would return no record. If that is the case, I need to redirect to another page with a message. But, doing a redirect inside a New() constructor will not work. So, what I do is that I initialize a property lStop to True and use that later on.
