According to the police, the parents of the girl took her to the Indira Gandhi Medical College (IGMC) and Hospital, Shimla, for check-up after she complained of stomachache. The doctor revealed to the parents that their daughter was four-month pregnant. The girl told her parents that a man had raped her four months ago.

The police stated that the girl’s statement had been recorded and her medical report had been included as evidence while an 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).
