Police have arrested two individuals on Saturday in a murder case of 27-year-old youth in Mandi district.

According to the police, Vijay of Nalsar village in Balh tehsil was murdered on December 13. Mandi SP Sakshi Verma said the police have arrested two accused — Pankaj Mankotia (32) and Saurabh Saini (23) — in this case. “Both the accused are residents of Bhiyura village in Balh Tehsil. They were apprehended yesterday,” the SP said.

“According to initial investigations, the murder appears to be related to a dispute over a financial transaction between the accused and the victim. The investigation is ongoing and the police are working to uncover further details,” the SP asserted.

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).
