The CIA staff of the local police, led by Inspector Prabhjit Singh, arrested six persons from Patti town, 25 km from here on Friday night, and seized six pistols with 38 cartridges from them. The police also impounded their four vehicles. The arrested suspects were identified as Arashdeep Singh of Kulla, Gursewak Singh of Pringri, Rajkanwar Singh of Nathuchak, Gurjant Singh of Kohali, Gurpreet Singh of Thakarpura and Jagdeep Singh of Patti, while five of their accomplices, who fled the spot, were identified as Diljan Singh, Arashdip Singh, Nishan Singh, Banti and Gurvel Singh.

The Patti police have registered a case under Sections 2, 5, 27, 54 and 59 of the Arms Act, 51-B of the Disaster Management Act.

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).
