Dera Bassi, July 22

A local court today sent suspended Vigilance Bureau Assistant Inspector General (AIG) Ashish Kapoor to judicial custody after his three-day remand ended in the case of thrashing of a woman accused in police custody in 2018.

The accused was represented by advocates Nitesh Mittal and Paramjeet Singh.

On July 19, Kapoor was sent to three-day police remand. A day before, the police had booked Kapoor, Motia Group director Hem Raj Mittal and Lovlish Garg for voluntarily causing hurt to extort property, obscenity and criminal intimidation of a woman accused in police custody.

A case was registered against the three at the Zirakpur 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).
