Punjab Vigilance Bureau nabbed an Assistant Sub-inspector (ASI) while accepting a bribe of Rs 8,500. The ASI, identified as Balraj Singh, was deputed at the Civil Lines police station in Patiala.

VB officials said arrest was made on a complaint of Vivek Kumar, a resident of Patiala city.

He had complained to bureau officials that the suspect had demanded a bribe of Rs 20,000 from him to implement a probe report prepared by senior police officials and to register a case against his opponents. The complainant said he had already paid Rs 1,500 to him.

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).
