A group of youths allegedly abducted a woman student of Lovely Professional University here on Friday.

Her father, Vipin Malhotra, a resident of New Harkrishan Nagar here, told the police that his daughter went on an errand on a scooter and was abducted by three youths, who were holding her hostage.

Malhotra said he suspected Sukhbir Ghagh and Gurpartap Singh, residents of Nangal-Saprod village; and Rajat Mittal, a resident of the local Gilco Colony; to have abducted his daughter.

DSP Bharat Bhushan said the police had registered a case under Section 346 of the IPC against the three youths and were looking for the woman.

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).
