As you want to do this from a Windows box using PuTTY, you need to look at Plink. This is a tool called from the Windows shell (DOS Prompt) and can be used like ssh. It is especially useful for running a ssh command on a remote *nix server from a Windows PowerShell or batch script.

It should already be installed as part of the default PuTTY installation, or it can be downloaded from the PuTTY website as a standalone executable.

SSH-ARGV0(1)                                                BSD General Commands Manual                                               SSH-ARGV0(1)

NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command] hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command] DESCRIPTION
ssh-argv0 replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling. If you link to this script with a hostname then executing the link is equivalent to having executed ssh with that hostname as an argument. All other arguments are passed to ssh and will be processed normally. OPTIONS
