Ludhiana, August 19

The Ludhiana Commissionerate on Friday traced the kidnapped three-month-old child to Bathinda within 24 hours.

Police carried out searches to trace Nihal on Thursday night and were successful.

Five kidnappers were arrested. One of the kidnappers was known to the family, who hatched the conspiracy.

JCP Narinder Bhargav said it is a case of child-trafficking and the kidnappers wanted to sell the child to a Bathinda-based man for Rs 50,000.

Police are likely to hold a press conference later.

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).
