A terror associate was detained under the Public Safety Act (PSA) on Monday for providing logistical support to the terrorist groups and operating in Udhampur district, officials said.

Acting firmly against terror supporters in the district, the police launched an operation and detained a hardcore terror associate under the PSA, said a police spokesperson.

The accused has been identified as Mohmmad Rafiq, a resident of Balota Chigla in Basantgarh. He was shifted to jail.

Rafiq is involved in multiple terror cases and was working as active guide and facilitator for the terrorist organisations till his arrest. With this, the number of terror associates held has gone upto to five.

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).
