The city police have booked a resident of the local Muradpur locality in connection with the abduction of a teenage girl. The victim went missing under mysterious circumstances on July 1.

The victim was abducted when she was alone in the house as her parents were daily wage earners and were for work. The family has been making all-out efforts to trace the girl.

Kirpal Singh, ASI (city police), said on the statement of the victim’s father, suspect Palwinder Singh Rahul of the Muradpur locality has been booked under Sections 137 (2) and 87 of the BNS. It is alleged that the accused abducted her by luring to marry her.

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).
