Tarn Taran, May 26

A man was beaten to death in Sursingh village, 25 km from here, on Tuesday. The victim was identified as 27-year-old Mandeep Singh.

Tarsem Singh, father of the deceased, and his relatives held a protest outside the police station with the victim’s body, seeking registration of a case. Later, the police booked four persons, three of them unidentified, under Section 304 of the Indian Penal Code. SHO Gurcharan Singh said one of the suspects was identified as Kuldeep Singh Bhutto. The four persons suspected the victim of stealing their motorcycle and beat him severely, resulting in his death, the SHO said. The body has been sent to the Patti Civil Hospital for a post-mortem examination.

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).
