Palwal, April 2

Three unidentified armed youths, who came on a bike, barged into the shop of one Rajender Kapoor, a jeweller located near Laxmi Narayan temple in the market, around 12 noon today and took away gold and silver ornaments worth several lakhs.

It is claimed that while one of the accused took out a revolver and pointed it at the shop owner, another collected the jewellery and put those into a bag. The third accused was stationed outside on a motorcycle during the heist.

The trio fled within seven to eight minutes. “The exact amount of the loot is yet to be ascertained. A hunt has been launched after registering a case,” said the police. —

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).
