A 10-year-old girl was allegedly raped by a 28-year-old man at a public toilet in Mauli Jagran. The accused was caught by people and handed over to the police.

Sources said that Dhanra of Budhanpur village, Panchkula, was in an inebriated condition when he entered a women’s toilet and raped the victim. Some women noticed the accused in the washroom and raised an alarm. The accused tried to flee the spot, but was nabbed by some locals. The police have registered a case.

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).
