Mohali, May 10

A Punjab Police constable died of gunshot wounds at a hotel in Phase 9 here this evening.

The deceased has been identified as Ashwani Kumar, a resident of Police Lines, Sector 26. His father Prem Singh is serving in the Chandigarh Police.

The police said the weapon with which the bullet was fired had been recovered. The 31-year-old constable was currently posted in Mohali.

Sources said the constable was taken to the GMCH-32 by the time the Mohali police arrived at the spot and began an investigation.

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).
