Bengaluru, June 17

Former Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Monday appeared before the CID for an inquiry in connection with a POCSO case registered against him.

The Karnataka High Court on Friday restrained the CID from arresting the BJP leader in connection with the March 14 case. Yediyurappa has been booked under the POCSO Act, 2012, and Section 354 A (Sexual harassment) of the IPC based on a complaint by the mother of a 17-year-old girl who alleged that he molested her daughter during a meeting in February this year.

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).
