Tarn Taran, January 11

The police arrested a person from the Harike-Patti road on Friday after 257 grams of heroin was recovered from his possession. However, his two associates managed to give the police the slip.

Jagjit Singh Walia, SP (Investigation), told mediapersons on Saturday the suspect had been identified as Tarsem Singh of Kalke Hathar villege, Ferozpur. He said Gurjant Singh of Basti Kisnewal and Gurdial Singh of Ashike, both residents of Ferozpur district, managed to flee from the spot.

A case under Sections 21, 29, 61 and 85 of the NDPS Act has been registered against suspects.

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).
