Chandigarh, July 12

A juvenile has been apprehended by the local police for vehicle thefts. He allegedly used to steal two-wheelers for joyrides and later abandon these in different parts of the city.

The police said the 15-year-old suspect, a Class VIII student, used to steal two-wheelers parked in the Sector 22 market.

“He used to steal the two-wheelers for joyrides and later abandon these on the roadside,” said a police official.

The police said two motorcycles that were stolen from the Sector 17 police station area had been recovered from him.

He was produced before the Juvenile Justice Board and sent to Juvenile Home.

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).
