Mohali, August 29

The police arrested two youths and recovered 18 stolen mobile phones from their possession here today.

A case has been registered against the suspects, identified as Akash Bawa, a resident of Kharar, and Vimal Gupta, under Sections 454 and 380 of the IPC at the Balongi police station.

Balongi SHO Parivinkal Grewal said Balongi resident Des Raj said two cellphones were stolen from his house on August 26. When he tried to nab the miscreant, he disclosed his identity as Akash Bawa before fleeing. The police arrested him and recovered three stolen mobile phones from him. During interrogation, he disclosed that he used to handover these phones to Kharar resident Vikas Gupta, who used to further sell these. The police recovered 15 mobile phones from Gupta.

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).
