Moga, April 25

The police have recovered the bodies of two drug addicts from a canal on the outskirts of Kishanpura village in Moga district, police officials said today.

While there were no signs of injuries on the bodies, murder could not be ruled out, they said. The victims have been identified as Jagjit Singh (22) of Bagia village in Ludhiana and Harjinder Singh (28) of Kishanpura Kalan village in Moga.

Preliminary investigations suggested both were friends and addicted to drugs. It was learnt Jagjit often used to come to Kishanpura village to meet Harjinder, who apparently arranged drugs through local sources.

They apparently died of overdose and peddlers might have thrown their bodies into the canal, thepolice 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).
