The CBI today questioned Mumbai Police Commissioner Sanjay Pandey in connection with its probe against former Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh in a corruption case.

Officials said Pandey was questioned for around six hours over the allegations of attempting to influence former Commissioner Param Bir Singh to withdraw his complaint against Deshmukh while the Bombay HC was hearing the case.

The agency has booked Deshmukh and some unidentified persons for “attempt to obtain undue advantage for improper and dishonest performance of public duty”. —

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).
