Panipat, November 30

The court of Additional District and Sessions Judge-cum-Special Judge (heinous crime against women), Ajay Kumar Verma, on Wednesday awarded seven years rigorous imprisonment to a man for the disappearance of evidence in a murder case.

Deputy District Attorney (DDA) Kuldeep Dhull said the court had also imposed a fine of Rs 50,000 on the convict identified as Siraj, a resident of Uttar Pradesh.

The matter was reported to the Samalkha police in 2019. Afsana was murdered in Samalkha by her husband Ishtiyak Khan, who had strangulated her and disposed of her body with the help of his brother Siraj.

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).
