Amritsar, April 22

The BSF today nabbed a Pakistani intruder near Rania outpost along the India-Pakistan border here. The man was identified as Taimur Hasan (22), a resident of Lahore’s Mohamad Booty village.

The BSF found nothing objectionable from him during initial search. A BSF spokesman said at around 11am on Monday, BSF personnel noticed suspicious movement of a youth along the Ravi river bank in Rear Kakkar village.

During preliminary questioning, the BSF recovered a plastic water bottle, two masks, a pen, a lighter, a carry bag, needle and thread from his possession. A police official has confirmed the development, but added that BSF has not handed him over to the police yet as investigations were still under progress.

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).
