Chandigarh, August 8

While the UT police are yet to make any breakthrough in the murder of a 97-year-old woman at her house in Sector 8 here, today they verified the route that the victim’s daughter-in-law took while on her way to a gurdwara on the day of the incident.

Joginder Kaur was found dead at her house on Friday evening. Her throat was slit with a knife.

The victim’s daughter-in-law, who stays separately in one portion of the house, had told the police that she had gone to a gurdwara at the time of the incident, following which they verified the route taken by her.

Meanwhile, the police also checked the footage of CCTV cameras installed in the area.

A police official said they were working on various theories and verifying the facts. Various persons were being questioned in the case.

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).
