A man was killed by some persons on Sunday evening in Abohar’s Bhangala village for opposing his daughter’s harassment.

The Sadar police have brought the body to the Civil Hospital mortuary for a post-mortem and have registered a murder case based on the statement of the deceased’s wife. The suspects have been absconding.

Deceased Balkar Singh’s wife Charanjit Kaur said her daughter was often harassed by a neighbour, Manjinder Singh. Balkar used to scold the man over it. Last evening, when her husband walked out of the house for some work, Manjinder, his brother Tarsem Singh, father Chand Singh and mother Harpreet Kaur attacked him with sharp weapons.

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).
