Chandigarh, March 18

Crime Branch of the UT police has arrested a burglar who was involved in two house thefts at Shastri Nagar, Mani Majra. The suspect has been identified as Anil Kumar, alias Batish, a resident of Bapu Dham Colony (BDC).

In a complaint, Sonu Gupta had reported that gold and silver ornaments, two mobile phones, Rs 18,000 and other valuables were stolen from her house during the night of March 3. The police said the other house theft was reported in December last year by Daya Shankar, who stated that Rs 30,000, gold and silver jewellery, and two mobile phones were stolen from his house.

The police said the suspect was nabbed from Bapu Dham Colony and the stolen items were recovered. The 24-year-old suspect already faces five cases of theft registered in the city, of which he was convicted in four cases.

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).
