Chandigarh, June 10

Two persons have been arrested by the police for molesting and assaulting a woman at Mauli Jagran.

The police said they had received information about a quarrel at Mauli Jagran Complex, following which a team reached the spot. A 23-year-old woman was found injured at the spot and was rushed to the PGI.

In her statement, the victim has alleged that she was sitting outside her house on the night of June 7, when the suspects, identified as Karan (20) and Khempal, alias Sigar (21), arrived there and started abusing her. They molested and attacked her. She suffered an injury near the eyes.

The police said a case under Section 323, 354, 354-A, 506 and 34 of the IPC was registered at the Mauli Jagran police station. Both suspects had been arrested. They are already booked in a case of robbery registered in October 2022.

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).
