Thieves decamped with gold worth Rs 2.25 lakh and cash amounting to Rs 6.45 lakh from a house in Sector 12A on Thursday.

Sudhir Kumar, a resident of Sector 12A who works in architecture and construction, said he and his wife had gone to get their son back home from school at around 1.40 pm and returned at 2.15pm. He said within 25 minutes of their absence from the house, they returned to a broken lock on their front door.

He said the thieves broke into their house and decamped with cash and gold ornaments, including a mangal-sutra, earrings, and rings, among other items worth Rs 8.70 lakh.

The Panchkula police have registered a case against the unidentified persons under Sections 305 (theft) and 331 (house-tresspass) of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).

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).
