The Dakha police have arrested a fraudster for cheating people by withdrawing money after exchanging ATM cards. The police recovered 79 ATM cards from the accused, identified as Sumit Kumar of Kot Mangal, Ludhiana.

Police officials said they had received a tip-off regarding the accused having defrauded several people by exchanging their ATM cards on the pretext of helping them withdraw money from the ATM. The accused would stand inside ATM kiosks and whenever anyone would try to withdraw cash, he would note their password. He would also volunteer to help people and exchange cards in the process.

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).
