Panchkula, September 9

Gangster Sukhpreet Budha, who is in the custody of the local crime branch, tested positive for Covid today. He underwent the Covid test at the Civil Hospital on Tuesday.

Inspector Karambir, in-charge, CIA-II, said, “The gangster has been isolated at the crime branch office in Sector 19. Cops exposed to the gangster have isolated themselves and will undergo the Covid test.”

The gangster was brought on a production warrant from the Sangrur jail in connection with the 2018 Bhupesh Rana muder case. He was produced in a court, which sent him to three-day police remand. A police official said a separate Covid care centre for infected prisoners would come up in Sector 12 soon. — 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).
