The main accused in the Chakkowal double murder case, Sukhwinder Singh, alias Sukhi, of Raipur was arrested today by the police after an encounter.

SP (D) Sarabjit Singh Bahia said the police had got a tip-off that Sukhi, the main shooter in the double murder case, was hiding near Hargarh Choe. When the CIA staff and the Bulhowal police tried to arrest him, he fired three shots on the police. During the retaliatory action by the police, a bullet hit the leg of the accused and he was arrested.

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).
