Zirakpur: The police have arrested a youth for allegedly abducting and raping a minor girl. The suspect has been identified as Jatinder Singh, a resident of Peermuchalla and native of Bihar. He was produced in a Dera Bassi court, which remanded him in police custody for one day. The victim’s father had lodged a complaint with the police saying that he had gone to work on February 24 when he received a call from home at 7 am that his 12-year-old daughter had gone with someone in a three-wheeler. On February 25, his daughter returned home and said the suspect had taken her with him and raped her. TNS

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).
