The Harike police arrested three persons with two trucks laden with stolen wheat at a naka installed on National Highway No.54 here on Wednesday night.

Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) Pargat Singh, who was leading a police party, said here on Thursday that the accused have been identified as Gurjant Singh Sanni, Akashdeep Singh Akasha and Manjit Singh of Harike, who stole 678 bags of wheat from the grain market, Harike, to be unloaded at godowns in Naushehra Pannuan village.

The Assistant Sub-Inspector said the accused in spite of going to the Naushehra Pannuan side, went to the opposite side towards Makhu town.

He said the accused took the stolen wheat bags to a private market to sell it on their own. The police have registered a case under Section 316 (3) of the BNS in this regard.

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).
