The Operations Cell arrested three youths for snatched mobile phones and stealing two-wheelers.

The police said the accused, Akeel, alias Mulla (24), and Akbar Khan (23), both residents of Nayagaon, were nabbed near the Haryana Chief Minister’s residence. A stolen mobile phone and the motorcycle used in the crime were recovered from them.

The police produced both accused before the court yesterday and the judge sent Akeel to one-day police remand. His interrogation led to the recovery of four mobile phones and a scooter that were stolen from the Mauli Jagran police station.

Akeel already faces six cases registered against him in Chandigarh. Another team of Operations Cell nabbed Mohammad Ashif (25), a resident Dhanas, with a scooter that was stolen from the Sector 11 police station area.

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).
