Chandigarh, July 13

A security guard at Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH), Sector 32, was thrashed by a few persons accompanying a patient on Sunday night, which reportedly led to the security guard’s death.

The victim had an altercation after he stopped the suspects from entering the emergency and asked them to wait outside.

The victim has been identified as Shyam Sundar (51). Shyam was admitted to the hospital, where he later succumbed to the injuries.

The police have registered a case and initiated 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).
