Bathinda, October 13

The Bathinda police claim to have busted a gang involved in extortion with the arrest of three persons. A .32-bore pistol and four cartridges were seized from the accused.

The police said the accused—Gurdit Singh, Sunil Kumar and Rohit Kumar, all residents of Faridkot—were close to Canada-based gangster Goldy Brar and worked for Malaysia-based gangster Vicky. It was on the instructions of Vicky that the accused threw bottle bombs at liquor shops in Kotkapura and Faridkot. The police produced the accused in the court and secured thier remand.

SSP Gulneet Singh Khurana said on October 5, a joint operation was launched by the Civil Lines police and a CIA 1 team after a tip-off that a youth in a Scorpio was roaming in the city with an intention to commit crime. The joint team nabbed the accused from Ring Road near the Army Cantonment.

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).
