Fatehgarh Sahib, April 24

The police are hopeful of solving the mystery of the loot of Rs 50 lakh by three motorcycle-borne miscreants from the office of a firm at Mandi Gobindgarh.

The incident has created panic among the traders of Asia’s biggest steel town, where a huge amount of cash is circulated daily.

SSP Dr Ravjot Grewal said it was not a criminal case and the involvement of insiders could not be ruled out and the police had initiated a manhunt to nab the suspects. Since the police were working on various theories, it would not be appropriate to disclose information at this stage, she said, confirming that the loot amount was indeed Rs 50 lakh as reported earlier.

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).
