The Subhanpur police arrested a youth on Friday after recovering 6 grams of heroin from his possession during a routine checking near Bamuwal Saif village.

According to officials, a police team was on patrol duty near Lakhan Ke Padhai village when they noticed a suspicious young man attempting to flee upon seeing them. The suspect allegedly threw a polythene packet on the roadside before being apprehended by the police.

On searching the packet, policemen found 6 grams of heroin in it. The accused was identified as Lovepreet Singh, alias Love, a resident of Mohalla Balmik, Nafaula village, falling under the Subhanpur police station.

A case was registered against the accused under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act in this connection.

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).
