The police arrested a 48-year-old man for an alleged attempt to rape a minor girl in his neighbourhood in Wazirabad village today. An FIR has been registered against the accused at the Sector 53 police station under the POCSO Act. According to the police, the accused has been identified as Lakhan, a native of Madhya Pradesh, currently living in a rented accommodation in Wazirabad village.

According to the complaint filed by the victim’s mother, it was in the afternoon when her daughter was playing in the street and the accused took her and tried to rape her.

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).
