A pall of gloom descended on Baghwala village in Shahkot as the villagers received the news of the mysterious death of a village youth in Greece.

The youth who had gone to Greece for work was found dead under mysterious circumstances. His body was found on a beach.

Sarvjeet Singh, elder brother of the deceased, said Dharampreet Singh Lucky (42) had moved to Greece five years ago. Recently, a photograph of Dharampreet, along with an audio message, was sent to Sarvjeet on WhatsApp by an acquaintance from Kotla Surajmal village. The audio message contained information about Dharampreet’s death.

Sarvjeet said he contacted the person who had sent the message and was informed that a relative had sent the photo and recording.

Sarvjeet said that after extensive efforts, he managed to confirm the news through his contacts in Greece.

Greek authorities are currently investigating the case.

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).
