The Nakodar city police have booked two persons on charges of attempting to take over a shop forcibly and threatening its tenant.

Investigating officer (IO) Rajindar Kumar said the accused had been identified as Amarjit Singh, a resident of Mohalla Sherpur, and his unidentified accomplice.

Sunil Kumar, a resident of Mohalla Tandona, complained to the police that he was running a computer shop at Dakhni Adda, owned by Amarjit Singh, which the accused was forcibly trying to get vacated.

The complainant said he had obtained a stay order from a court about the shop, adding that on December 27 the accused demolished the walls and boundary of the shop in a bid to take over it.

Sunil further said that the accused threatened him with dire consequences. The investigation officer said a case had been registered against 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).
