Ferozepur, October 8

The Ferozepur police arrested two persons in connection with a blast that took place in the city area last month. The accused have been identified as Sukhwinder Singh, alias Sukha, a resident of Chandi Wala village and Sukeen Singh, a resident of Dharmu Wala village in Jalalabad.

SSP Rajpal Singh said during the investigation, the involvement of the two suspects came to the fore. “These two were involved in another incident in which they had set ablaze a car in the city area,” he said. “The accused have been booked under Sections 436, 427 and 34 of the IPC and Sections 3 and 4 of the Explosive Substances Act, 1908, at the City police station,” he said.

On September 6, the suspects allegedly blew up the front entrance (rolling shutters) of two shops with some explosives at midnight in the Namak Mandi area in the city. — OC

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).
