Panipat, March 6

Panipat Police are currently looking for a 14-year-old boy in connection with the rape of a 6-year-old girl in Deshraj Colony, sources said on Sunday.

The incident occurred while the child was playing on the roof of a factory quarter where the child’s parents work, sources said. The suspect, believed to be a neighbour, allegedly fled soon after the incident.

Police have registered a case under provisions of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, sources said.

The victim is currently being treated at a general hospital, where her condition was reported to be stable, sources added.

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).
