Open a executable with "sh" under Ubuntu - linux

Question

I'm working with the API for Sonar (http://javadocs.sonarsource.org/4.5/apidocs/org/sonar/api/utils/command/Command.html) and it says for the function to execute commands that "the command will be executed with sh executable."
What I want to to do is just use
tslint path/to/my/code.ts
in the terminal (since this works). But the damn method excutes the line with "sh" so it looks something like this
sh tslint path/to/my/code.ts
and gives me the error
sh: 0: can't open tslint
How do I work around this to just execute "tslint" even though the command starts with sh?
Thanks for the help
EDIT: Since many of you asked what the java code looks like that produces this command (not mine, it's from an open source project):
Command command = Command.create("tslint");
command.addArgument("--config " + configFile + " --format json " + file.trim());
final EDIT:
working version:
Command command = Command.create("node");
command.addArgument(pathToTsLint);
command.addArgument("--format");
command.addArgument("json");
command.addArgument("--config");
command.addArgument(configFile);
command.addArgument(file.trim());
command.setNewShell(false);

Check in the terminal with which tslint the full path of the file.
From the terminal you can all it with
/bin/sh -c "/path/to/tslint /path/to/my/code.ts"
With the Sonar API it is:
Command command = Comman.create('/full/path/name/to/tslint');
command.addArgument("--config " + configFile + " --format json " + file.trim());
You don't need the -c parameter from the sh command, but you must use the absolute path to the tslint command.
