The court also ordered assistance of Rs 5 lakh to the victim through the District Legal Services Authority. In 2021, her father said in a police complaint that his family had gone to sleep and when he woke up around 4 am, his daughter was not in her room.

The police traced her in Rajasthan, where she revealed that she used to visit the village temple and the priest sexually assaulted her. He abused her several times later, too. On the night of June 10, he lured her and they fled the village. Later, she became pregnant and gave birth to a girl, who was given up for adoption.

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).
