The crime branch of the Ludhiana police on Saturday arrested three persons and recovered two illegal countrymade .315 bore pistols along with two cartridges from their possession.

The suspects were identified as Gurpreet Singh of Gandhi Nagar, Amritsar, Lovepreet Singh of Ajnala and Gursewak Singh, also from Amritsar.

ASI Balkar Singh said on Saturday, when a police team was conducting a routine patrolling near Hundal chowk in Bhamian Kalan, they got a tip-off that the three suspects were roaming near the Bhamian Khurd ground and were planning to commit some big crime. Following which, the police conducted a raid and nabbed the trio with the weapons.

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).
