Zirakpur, June 12

A 15-year-old girl was allegedly robbed of her scooty at gunpoint on the Aerocity road this afternoon.

The victim, Jasleen Kaur of I-Block, Aerocity, said around 1.30 pm, she had gone to buy grocery from a store near her house. A middle-aged man standing under a tree signalled her to stop. She stopped near him and he tried to snatch her phone. The man then pulled a pistol from his bag and threatened to shoot her if she raised the alarm. He fled on her scooty.

The suspect had left his scooty behind as he had exhausted its fuel. On verification, the police found that the two-wheeler had a fake registration plate with a Kharar address.

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).
