New Delhi, November 3

The Supreme Court on Thursday rejected a review petition filed by Pakistani national Mohammad Arif, a Lashkar-e-Taiba militant, against a 2014 Supreme Court order upholding the death sentence awarded to him in the December 2000 Red Fort attack case.

Arif was arrested along with wife Rehmana Yousuf Farooqui four days after the attack. He was convicted of murder, criminal conspiracy and waging war against India.

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).
