After the police issued advertisements, Ram Singh identified her as his wife who had left for Kullu with their three-year-old daughter on August 4, but never returned.

Balwinder met the deceased in Manali on August 4 and spent the night there. On August 6, the accused, along with his acquaintance Ruby, and the deceased, travelled via Delhi to Bihar, in search of work. Later, they returned to Delhi, from where they set out towards HP. On reaching near Bara village, the two had an argument, during which Balwinder strangled the woman and dumped the body in a pit.

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).
