The police have arrested two youths with countrymade pistols and four cartridges.

The ACP (Crime), Arvind Kamboj, said on Wednesday, the detective staff received a tip-off about two men carrying illegal weapons near the Jattamajri turn on the Nalagarh–Pinjore road. A team reached the spot and arrested the suspects. One pistol and three cartridges were seized from Najar, a resident of Paploha village, while another pistol and one cartridge were recovered from Ramandeep Singh, alias Preet, of Karnpur, Panchkula.

The DCP said both accused had a criminal history – three cases are already registered against Najar and two against Ramandeep. A fresh case under Section 25(1-B)(A) of the Arms Act has been registered at the Pinjore police station.

They were produced before the court and the Judge remanded them in police custody for interrogation.

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).
