Chandigarh, June 25

Nine days after a youth, Sandeep, was found murdered at Daria, the GRP arrested Prakash Singh (26) and Rohit (21). Station house officer Raj Kumar said: “We rounded them up yesterday and started questioning them. They admitted to murdering Sandeep.”

While Prakash owns a dhaba in Daria, Rohit, who earlier worked at a sweets shop in the same village, was staying in Haryana. “Three of them were drinking that night and got into a fight over something. They used a stick and some sharp weapon, which is used for cutting coconuts, to kill Sandeep,” said the SHO.

Sandeep worked at the railway station as a Grade C technician. — 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).
