The police have arrested, Rajinder, alias Joker, a native of Hisar and the prime suspect in the Madanpura firing case of November 11. He was carrying a country-made pistol.

“The suspect has eight cases registered against him at police stations in Punjab and Haryana. He was also involved in a firing incident at Balongi in 2017 in which a financier was injured,” said Phase 1 SHO Shivdeep Singh Brar.

Four suspects, who were in an SUV, first rammed their vehicle into a motorcycle of the victim, Rohit, a resident of Balongi village, and later fired a shot at him. Rohit and his friend ran in separate directions and took shelter in nearby houses. Preliminary probe revealed that there was an old enmity between Rohit and the suspects. — 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).
