Patiala, August 1
The police have apprehended gangster Puneet Singh, alias Golu, who has multiple cases registered against him, after a brief encounter.
Golu, a resident of New Mathura Colony in Patiala, was cornered by the police in Sanour. He was involved in the murder of Tejpal Singh in Patiala and a finger-chopping incident that took place in Mohali on February 8.
As the police teams zeroed in on him, Golu opened fire on cops, thus prompting them to retaliate in self-defence. During the encounter, Golu sustained a bullet injury on the leg.
Golu, a close associate of gangster Rajiv Raja, has a long criminal history with 15 robbery, murder and attempt-to-murder cases registered against him
He had jumped bail in several cases and was evading arrest in others. The police have seized a .32 bore pistol, cartridges and a bike from the possession of the accused.

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).
