Lalru, July 7

The police have arrested four persons suspected of duping residents on the pretext of getting them jobs in the Indian Army.

The suspects have been identified as Sachin (19), alias Fauji, and Chandra Shekhar (19), both residents of Sirsa, Prem (24) and Sunil Kumar (23), both from Hisar.

They were booked under Sections 420, 406, 465, 467, 468, 471 and 120-B of the IPC at the Lalru police station. A laptop, a car, an Army uniform, fake certificates and appointment letters had been seized from the suspects, the police said. The police said Rs2 lakh had been recovered from Sachin and Rs85,000 from Chandra. The money was taken from innocent youths.

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).
