Muktsar, January 21

The Malout (Sadar) police have booked liquor contractors for trespassing into a house and allegedly opening fires in Khunan Kalan village on Monday.

Complainant Sukhchain Singh told the police that Gurpinder Singh of Muktsar, Manish Sharma of Udekaran village, Sukhvir Singh of Bhangchari village, Gurjant Singh of Sohangarh village and seven to eight unidentified persons entered his house around 4 pm on Monday.

“Neither the village chowkidar nor any policeman was accompanying them. These persons also opened fire in the air later,” he said.

The police have registered a case under Sections 336, 506, 148 and 149 of the IPC and Sections 25, 27, 54 and 59 of the Arms Act. The suspects are, however, yet to be arrested. — TNS

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).
