New Delhi, April 10

The US embassy organised a special screening of the documentary “Bogus Phone Operators”, an investigative crime series, at the American Centre in New Delhi. In the documentary, the audience saw how American and Indian authorities had teamed up to unravel a multi-million-dollar scam by impersonators preying on elderly US citizens.

The documentary shed light on the scale and severity of the alleged scam, its impact on US victims and the subsequent investigation involving cyber experts, lawyers and a joint operation between Indian police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

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).
