Chandigarh, July 3

The body of a man who had been missing for the past few days was found at Sukhna Lake this morning.

Morning walkers noticed the body in the lake and informed the police. A team rushed to the scene and pulled the body out. It was later shifted to the Government Multi-Speciality Hospital, Sector 16.

The police said the victim had been identified as Mohan Singh, a resident of Saketri. “The body seems to be two days old,” said a police official. The victim used to frequent the lake. The police said prima facie, nothing suspicious had been found as there were no injury marks on the body. However, the cause of death would be established only after the postmortem examination, he said.

An inquest proceeding had been initiated by the police at the Sector 11 police station.

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).
