Chandigarh, June 24

A 26-year-old youth, who was pursuing BCom from Delhi, reportedly committed suicide by hanging himself from a tree in a forest area near Colony No. 4, Industrial Area, Phase I, last night.

The victim has been identified as Gaurav, a resident of Colony No. 4. The police said they received information about the incident around 7.30 am.

The police said according to a statement of the victim’s father, Naresh, his son had “gone to the washroom around 2 am and didn’t return”. He had come to stay with his parents following the lockdown due to Covid-19. No suicide note was found from the spot. The police have ruled out any foul play behind the incident. — 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).
