Chandigarh, October 27

The beheaded body of a man, aged about 50 years, was found on the railway tracks near railway station here around 10 am today.

The railway police have registered an FIR under Section 176 of the IPC. The body has been sent to the mortuary of Sector 6, Civil Hospital, Panchkula, where it will be kept for 72 hours, said Raj Kumar, SHO, GRP, Chandigarh Railway Station.

“The station authorities informed us about the body at about 10 am. It seems to be a train accident case. The man is aged between 50-52 and was wearing dark blue track pants with a blue-grey cardigan over a white shirt. Anything leading to the identity of the deceased could not be found,” he added.

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).
