Chandigarh, July 13

In a reprieve to dismissed cop Raj Jit Singh Hundal, the High Court has asked a Mohali court to defer taking a call on a proclamation against him for a week to enable him to file anticipatory bail plea.

Hundal was fearing arrest “on account of being nominated as an accused on the basis of a report submitted by senior officers”. Taking up his plea, the Bench asserted an alternative and efficacious remedy of anticipatory bail was available to him under Section 438, CrPC, as he was apprehending arrest.

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).
