Gurugram, April 10

An ex-Armyman, employed as SPO with the Nuh police, was allegedly attacked by a group of men, including a local sarpanch. They accused him of spreading Covid. The incident was reported from Sangel village in Nuh.

An iron chain was put around victim Saimmuddin’s neck and he was dragged by the men. He was grievously injured and was rushed to a private hospital in Gurugram. The victim’s wife, Samina, moved the police against the accused.

“He is a former soldier and serves in the police as an SPO at the Nuh police station. In the noon today, he was going to the fields to check on the harvesting being done there. The local villagers had erected a naka on the way. The local sarpanch Rajender abused him and made communal comments. He urged other people to attack Saimmuddin,” said complainant Samina. — TNS

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).
