Chandigarh, April 11

The UT police have arrested a 52-year-old man for snatching a bag containing Rs1 lakh. The incident was reported on March 27.

Complainant Dharmender Kumar, a native of Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh, had reported that a person had told him that he can catch a bus for Muzaffarnagar from Sector 27. The suspect then took Dharmender close to the Sector 19/27 light point and fled after snatching his bag containing cash and clothes.

A case in this regard was registered at the Sector 26 police station and an investigation was initiated into the matter.

Later, a team led by Inspector Jasbir Singh, Station House Officer of the Sector 26 police station, arrested the suspect, who has been identified as Maheshwat Paswan, a resident of Muzaffarpur, Bihar.

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).
