Karnal, August 21

Five days after the rape and murder of a six-year-old, the Panipat police filed a challan in the court on Saturday.

The minor was kidnapped from a park in Sector 29 on August 15 and later her body was found near a nullah. Hours after the incident, the police arrested Ishwar of Piri Chamoli (Uttarakhand), currently a tenant in Krishna Garden colony.

For the past five months, he had been working at a dhaba near Floura chowk. Within five days, we filed a challan and collected strong evidence against Ishwar. We will request the court to sentence him to death”, said Shashank Kumar Sawan, SP. He got a one-day police remand and was later sent to judicial custody. The post-mortem report confirmed that the girl was raped and later murdered, added SP.

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).
