Mohali, July 5

A woman allegedly died by suicide following which the police arrested her husband on abetment charge.

Anita, a 37-year-old resident of Preet Colony, Dera Bassi, allegedly consumed some poisonous substance on Monday night. The police registered a case against her husband Pritam Singh, 67, an ex-serviceman.

Dera Bassi SHO Jaskanwal Singh said it was the second marriage of both Anita and Pritam. Since their marriage, Pritam was allegedly harassing her, which made the woman take the extreme step.

She was admitted to the subdivisional hospital where she died. On the statement of the woman’s family members, the police registered a case against her husband and arrested him.

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).
