Chandigarh, January 20

An unknown car driver has been booked for hitting a scooterist, leading to his death.

The accident took place on December 9. The victim, a resident of Sector 41, succumbed to his injuries on December 24.

According to the police, complainant Arjun Singh, a resident of Raipur Khurd village, reported that the unknown car driver sped away after hitting a scooter driven by Balbir Singh on the road dividing Sector 41 and 42. As a result, the scooter rammed into a Tata Ace from the rear.

The victim, who suffered injuries in the mishap, was admitted to the PGI on December 9. He succumbed to his injuries on December 24.

The police have now registered a case against the unknown car driver at the Sector 36 police station and initiated investigations into the matter.

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).
