The Crime Branch 3 has arrested two persons, Ram Kishan, alias Rama, a resident of the Tajpur road area, and Mohit Verma, a resident of Kailash Nagar, near New Onkar Vihar, Jail Road, when the duo were sitting in an auto-rickshaw. On being interrogated, they admitted that they used to target migrants by offering to ferry them to their destinations and on the way, they rob them of their belongings by pointing sharp weapons. They also used to steal vehicles from different areas of the city during night hours.

The police are interrogating the suspects and expect that more details would be divulged.

They have recovered six mobile phones, four motorcycles, an auto-rickshaw and an iron rod from the miscreants.

Many cases were registered against the two suspects at police stations in the city in the past.

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).
