A 22-year-old Nepalese man has allegedly committed suicide in Shimla by hanging himself from a tree.

According to reports, the body of Ganga Ram, who used to work as a pick-up truck driver in Shimla, was found hanging from a tree with a rope tied around his neck in Summerhill.

The police reached the spot as soon as it received the information and took his body to Indira Gandhi Medical College (IGMC) Shimla for the post-mortem examination.

Shimla Additional Superintendent of Police (ASP) Rattan Negi confirmed the report and said further investigation was underway.

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).
