Three bike-borne unidentified assailants murdered the owner of a dhaba situated on the Bhai Shalo road in Majitha area on Tuesday night. The deceased has been identified as Karamjit Singh, alias Ladi. The incident took place around 10.30 pm when Ladi was closing his dhaba.

The police said the three unidentified bike-borne persons came to the dhaba. They got into an argument with Ladi and later scuffle broke out between them. The accused attacked the victim with sharp-edged weapons and fled the spot. Ladi was rushed to a hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.

Harashdeep Singh, SHO, Majitha police station, said they were collecting CCTV footage cameras installed in the area to identify the accused. A case under Section 302 of the IPC has been registered against some unidentified persons.

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).
