Chandigarh, April 18

A local court has sentenced an accused to undergo six months of rigorous imprisonment (RI) in a snatching case.

The court pronounced the judgment after the accused, Nandan, pleaded guilty to the crime. Awarding the sentence, the court said the period of detention of the convict during investigation and trial of the case shall be set off towards substantive sentence awarded to him. The case was registered on January 4, 2017, on the complaint of Deep Parkash of Sector 52, who stated that someone snatched a phone from his brother and ran away.

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).
