The police arrested three more persons in the alleged hit and run and attempt to murder case here yesterday. Those arrested were identified as Akshit, Keshav and Pankaj, all residents of Hamirpur district. The police had already arrested Rasik, a resident of Lalhadi village near Hamirpur, in the case.

On November 13, the police had stopped a car in which the trio was travelling on the suspicion of drug trafficking. However, the accused fled after injuring Inspector Kulwant Singh, SHO of the Sadar police station. The SHO had opened fire in self-defence but the accused fled. The police suspected that they were smuggling ‘chitta’. SP, Hamirpur, Bhagat Singh Thakur said that the police had recovered four grams of ‘chitta’ from the accused.

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).
