A criminal wanted in an attack over a policeman was arrested in Haryana’s Rohtak district on Thursday, police said.

Rohit Ruhal alias Bacchi, a resident of Panipat, who was carrying a reward of Rs 2 lakh on his head, was arrested from Hisar in Rohtak by Haryana Police’s Special Task Force (STF), they said.

A pistol and four cartridges were seized from his possession, a Haryana Police spokesperson said.

“He (Rahul), along with his aides, had opened fire on police inspector Sonu Malik in Gurgaon last year, with the intention to kill him. The inspector was seriously injured in the incident,” he said.

He said Rahul’s name had also cropped up in a kidnapping case.

Further probe into the matter is underway, the spokesperson said. —PTI

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).
