Amritsar, October 29

Two people were shot dead by armed assailants near Shaheed Udham Singh Chowk in Jandiala Guru’s Sheikhupura Mohalla here on Sunday, police said.

According to officials, the deceased identified as Amritpal Singh alias Sajan and his uncle Kulwant Singh were intercepted by four armed men on two motorcycles, who pumped bullets into them.

The victims were rushed to a nearby hospital where they were declared brought dead.

Sajan had around seven criminal cases, including Arms Act and NDPS Act, registered against him, said police sources.

Superintendent of police Gurpartap Singh Sahota said the police have booked notorious gangster Happy Jatt, while the four assailants have been identified and raids were on to nab them. He said the incident was an outcome of a gang rivalry.

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).
