A video of a man tied in front of a moving truck as a punishment for allegedly stealing two bags of wheat has gone viral on social media.

In the video, the truck helper is seen sitting beside the man and telling someone that he had stolen two wheat bags and was now being taken to police station.

Later, the man was handed over to police at Bus Stand police post.

Muktsar DSP Jagdish Kumar said, “The man is aged about 25 and is in our custody. A video has also surfaced in which he is seen stealing a wheat bag from a moving truck and escaping on a motorcycle along with his associate. We will take legal action against those as well who tied him in front of the truck and paraded in the town. They are also locals.”

Meanwhile, some locals claimed that the incident took place this evening on Abohar Road here.

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).
