Jalandhar, January 8

The city police have arrested a proclaimed offender (PO) wanted in a liquor smuggling case. The accused has been identified as Sumeer Sabharwal, a resident of Bansa Wali Gali, Rama Mandi in Jalandhar.

According to the police, Sumeer was wanted in a case registered against him under Sections 61, 1 and 14 of the Excise Act at the Rama Mandi police station in 2020. He had been absconding for more than two years. The police officials said a local court on November 18, 2022 had declared Sumeer as PO and police since then had been looking out for him.

They said following a tip-off, Sumeer was arrested from his residence at Rama Mandi on Saturday.

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).
