Mohali, March 12

Two bike-borne youths fired two shots outside a microbrewery in Sector 80 on Thursday night after the manager got an extortion call demanding Rs40 lakh, the police said.

The complainant, Harpreet Singh, told the police that he had got a WhatsApp call from an international number and the caller identified himself as Goldy Brar, a member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. He demanded Rs40 lakh from him and threatened him with dire consequences it he failed to pay. On Thursday night around 11:30 pm, two unidentified youths fired a shot into the air and another at the Brew Bros microbrewery premises and fled the spot. Eyewitnesses said the bar had closed for the guests and only the staff was present there. The CCTV camera of the bar was found non-functional.

Sohana SHO Kuljeet Singh said, “The police are verifying the claim.” —

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).
