Mohali, September 8

A 24-year-old youth allegedly hanged himself from a ceiling fan at his house in Phase 2 here this afternoon. He has been identified as Devkarn Kapoor.

After receiving information, a police team, led by SHO Sumit Mor, reached the site and shifted the body to the mortuary of the Civil Hospital.

Members of Devkarn’s family told the police that he had lunch in the afternoon and went to his room. When they called him for some work, there was no response from him. They went to the room and found Devkarn hanging from the ceiling fan. They took him to a private hospital where the doctors declared him dead on arrival.

DSP City-1 Harinder Singh Mann said the police did not find any suicide note from Devkarn’s room. The police have registered a case under Section 174, CrPC.

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).
