Chandigarh, November 17

The body of a 45-year-old man was found near Labour Chowk in Sector 44 here today. The victim has been identified as Jagpal, a resident of Jagatpura in Mohali, who worked as a plumber.

Daily wagers spotted the body smeared with blood in bushes around 7:45am and informed the police. A blood-stained stone was found near the body. A case of murder has been registered at the Sector 34 police station.

The police suspect it to be a case of drunken brawl as the victim, along with two men, had bought liquor from a vend in Burail on Monday night. The police are trying to trace the duo. — 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).
