A woman died in Maloya after sustaining a knife injury, police said on Wednesday. The body has been sent to the Sector-16 Hospital mortuary for postmortem.

Family members claimed she was accidentally injured while cutting vegetables at home. However, police have expressed suspicion and launched a thorough investigation.

Authorities are considering all possible angles, including foul play, and are awaiting the postmortem report to determine the exact cause of death.

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).
