Mohali, May 11

Faridkot police arrested Nishant Singh, a resident of Kullah village in Patti tehsil of Tarn Taran district, in the Punjab Police Intelligence office attack case.

The suspect was currently living in Amritsar after marriage, a senior Punjab Police official said.

The suspect is already booked under several cases, including the NDPS Act.

Police recovered a Russian rocket launcher used in the attack from a plot on the old Sohana road less than 1km from the blast site on Tuesday night.

On May 9 evening, a rocket-propelled grenade was fired from the road which reached the third floor of the building but didn’t explode, damaging glass doors, windowpanes, furniture and computers.

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).
