Faridabad, April 23

The police have arrested a man on late Friday night in a case of liquor smuggling that was registered against him 18 years ago.

The accused, Radhey Shyam, a resident of SGM Nagar of Faridabbad, was booked under the various sections of the Excise Act in 2004. In 2007, he was declared a proclaimed offender as he failed to appear for interrogation and hearing of the case in the court.

The accused was arrested from a hideout in the city by a team of the crime branch after a tip-off, the police claimed. He was produced before a court today which sent him to judicial custody.

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).
