The UT police will soon bring shooter Nitin Nahar on production warrant. Nitin is a key shooter involved in the firing at the house of hotelier Rakesh Singla, brother of liquor baron Arvind Singla.

Nitin, a resident of Indra Colony, Jhabal Road, Amritsar, was apprehended by the Punjab police two days ago from near Colour Resorts, Attari Road, Amritsar, along with his accomplice Bikramjit Singh, who had reportedly provided him a safe hideout.

Five assailants had opened indiscriminate fire at businessman and hotelier Rakesh Singla’s house in Sector 33 on May 31. At least 17 bullets were fired at the house. The assailants had come looking for Rakesh’s brother Arvind Singla, who is an established liquor contractor.

So far, two shooters and several aides involved in the crime have been arrested.

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).
