A Kerala man has been arrested by the CBI after being deported from UAE in a rape case. An agency official said today that the CBI had made a request to Interpol for Red Corner Notice (RCN) against rape accused Muhamed Hafis Vattaparambil Umer.

After a successful operation by International Police Cooperation Unit of the CBI and the National Central Bureau of Abu Dhabi, Umer was traced in the UAE, from where he was deported to India.

Upon his arrival on Monday, the CBI arrested him and handed him over to the state police. It is alleged that Umer had raped a woman on different occasions in December 2017 after promising to marry her, the officials said. — TNS

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).
