The Cyber Crime Police Station, Sector 20, Panchkula, has uncovered an organised gang involved in duping an elderly resident of approximately Rs 12.20 lakh on the pretext of issuing a credit card. A third accused has been arrested in the case, while two others are already in judicial custody. The complainant, a resident of Sector 4, reported that a fraudster posing as an employee of Punjab National Bank offered to issue a credit card. Through phone calls and WhatsApp messages, the accused obtained bank account information, debit card number and PIN details, and subsequently withdrew funds through multiple transactions. Two accused, Bhoma Ram and Uda Ram, were arrested earlier. Third accused, Vivek Kumar Gautam was apprehended from Delhi.

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).
