Srinagar, January 20

The Jammu and Kashmir Police has apprehended one more suspect in the disgraced DSP Davinder Singh’s case and handed him over to the National Investigation Agency (NIA).

Irfan Shah, brother of Hizb terrorist Naveed Babu, was called for questioning by the police and arrested in Jammu. He was later handed over to the NIA.

Naveed was arrested with his accomplice, a lawyer, and DSP Davinder Singh last week while they were heading to Jammu.

Sources said Naveed operated through Irfan who was a pointsman for communication across the border.

He was on the police radar for two months.

The J&K Police is investigating the DSP’s travels to Bangladesh where his two daughters are studying. – IANS

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).
