The purse of a foreign student studying at Lovely Professional University, Phagwara, was stolen by some unidentified miscreants. The incident occurred when 27-year-old Niyunkepedia Feona from Liberia was shopping with her friend at Gurh Mandi here on Wednesday.

Feona reported the incident to the Kotwali police, stating that her bag’s zip was found open when she boarded a bus to Jalandhar. Upon checking, she found her purse missing, which contained her passport and Rs 2,800 in cash.

The police registered a case against unidentified thieves and started a probe into the matter. Even CCTV footage from the area were also being checked to get any clue about the miscreants.

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).
