Rohan Masih, the prime suspect in the Chandigarh grenade attack case, was produced in a local court by the State Special Operation Cell after the expiry of his police remand. The court has extended his police remand by one day. He would be produced along with the second suspect, Vishal Masih, tomorrow. Vishal’s police remand would end on Friday.

Rohan Masih, a resident of Pashia village located near the International Border in Ramdass area, and Vishal Masih had hurled a hand grenade at a house in Sector 10, Chandigarh, at the behest of US-based gangster-turned terrorist Harpreet Singh, alias Happy Pashia, and Pakistan-based terrorist Harwinder Singh Rinda. The police had termed it a terror attack targeted at a former cop a couple of months ago.

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).
