The Muktsar police on Saturday claimed to have busted a honey trap extortion racket by arresting six persons, including two women. “They would contact victims, trap them, record their videos, and then demand money,” said DSP (Investigation) Ramanpreet Singh Gill. Those arrested were Harjinder Singh of Chak Giljewala; Jasmail Singh of Sukhna Ablu; Bhola Singh of Assa Buttar; Gora Singh of Chak Bir Sarkar; Sandeep Kaur of Doda; and Manjeet Kaur of Assa Buttar.

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).
