New Delhi: The Delhi Police claimed to have busted an online cricket betting racket, arresting two people for placing bets on the India-Pakistan match on February 23, an official said on Tuesday. Acting on a tip-off, a police team raided a house in Malviya Nagar where Ayan (32) and Nizam, alias Bhutto (45), were found accepting bets through an online betting application, Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) Ankit Chauhan said in a statement. The police recovered betting equipment, he said, adding that the accused revealed that they had facilitated bets worth Rs 13 lakh. An FIR had been registered and further investigation was on.

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).
