Zirakpur, May 7

Three persons have been arrested for culpable homicide not amounting to murder of the manager of Gurudwara Nabha Sahib here on Friday night.

The suspects have been identified as Avtar Singh Nagla and Mansa residents Sukhwinderpal Singh and Ravinderpal Singh.

The complainant, Shamsher Singh, a storekeeper at the gurdwara, stated that Sukhwinderpal and Avtar were allegedly overstaying in the gurdwara for the past two months and misusing it as an office.

The manager, Ranjit Singh, got the room vacated following which an internal inquiry was conducted. On Friday evening, the trio had a scuffle with the manager outside the gurdwara. They allegedly pushed him following which the victim fell on the ground. He was rushed to a hospital where doctors declared him dead.

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).
