Srinagar, September 27

The J&K State Investigation Agency on Wednesday carried out raids at multiple locations in the Valley in connection with the killing of a bank guard earlier this year, officials said. The raids were conducted in Anantnag, Pulwama and Shopian. These operations are a crucial component of the ongoing investigations into the tragic killing of bank ATM guard Sanjay Sharma when he was ambushed by terrorists in the Achan area of Pulwama in February.

An official confirmed that the search was conducted at multiple locations across south Kashmir. These searches have been executed in accordance with search warrants issued by a special court, shedding light on the fact that the initial investigation into Sharma’s killing was handled by the Pulwama police before being transferred to the purview of the SIA.

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).
