A local court has acquitted two persons Sunil Kumar, alias Lucky, and Rohit arrested in an attempt to murder case. The police booked the accused on January 22, 2024, on the statement of Vikash Kumar Thakur.

He alleged that on January 22, at about 7 pm, he and his friend, Raj Kumar, were standing at the parking in the front of a toilet. After a while, a group of boys came there and started arguing with Raj Kumar. One of them stabbed him in the stomach, he alleged.

The police filed the chargesheet under Sections 323, 324, 431, 34 and 307 of the IPC.

Narinder Dalal, counsel for Sunil Kumar, argued that the accused has been falsely implicated in the case. He added that neither the complainant nor the injured supported the case of the prosecution. After hearing of the arguments, the court acquitted the accused of the charges.

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).
