Aulakh had received repeated threat calls from unknown numbers on his management's phone number in the form of voice calls and WhatsApp messages. The caller, who was speaking in Punjabi, even threatened his family members by sending pictures of Aulakh's home and vehicles.

The singer had got threat calls from gangsters earlier also.

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).
