The police arrested an IIT engineer for stealing Rs 5 lakh from a car, which was parked in a housing society in New Palam Vihar. Along with the cash, three mobile phones and two laptops were recovered from him. The accused has been taken on 5-day police remand.

The accused has been identified as Denis alias Kullu, 31.

The police said, on Saturday, a property dealer residing in New Palam Vihar filed a complaint stating Rs 5 lakh had been stolen from his car. An FIR was registered.

During the investigation, police arrested the accused on Sunday near a shopping mall in Bajghera.

“The accused revealed when the car entered the society, he noticed bags inside the vehicle. After some time, he opened the car and stole the cash and items. The accused is currently being questioned,” said a police spokesperson.

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).
