The Kapurthala police today arrested five persons with arms, ammunition and vehicles while plotting to loot a petrol station on the Subhanpur road near Kapurthala. Two pistols, a revolver and a vehicle were seized from the five people.

Kapurthala SSP Navneet Singh Bains said working on a tip-off, the police arrested the five persons from the Kanjli Forest, where they were hatching a plan to commit the crime. Those arrested have been identified as Navjot Singh, alias Manni, Ravipal Singh, alias Ravi, Karan Lahori, Sameer, alias Sheru, residents of Mushakved and Sandeep Singh, alias Sabhi, a resident of Dheerpur village under the Kartarpur police station. They were planning to loot a petrol pump.

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).
