Patiala, August 27

The Tripuri police have booked five Central Jail inmates following a complaint by a convict, who alleged that the suspects attacked him and threatened him inside barracks.

The suspects have been identified as Amar Kalyan, Gurpreet Singh, Nawab Shah, Ruby Sharma and Harvinder Singh.

In his complaint, the victim, Harjinder Singh, stated that he was on duty in barracks number 2 where the suspects were shouting and disturbing other inmates. “When I asked them not to harass others, they attacked me and threatened me. Jail staff came to my rescue,” the FIR read quoting the complainant.

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).
