The Ajnala sub-divisional court remanded pro-Khalistan leader Amritpal Singh's aide Varinder Singh Fauji in five-day police custody after he was produced before it on Thursday.

Fauji was brought from Dibrugarh central jail in Assam after expiry of his detention period under the National Security Act.

Gurvinder Singh, DSP, Amritsar rural police, said the police had sought seven-day remand.

Varinder Singh, who left the Army, was a personal security guard of Amritpal. He was part of the mob that attacked Ajnala police station in February 2023. He would now be produced in court on April 1, the DSP said.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
