Ferozepur, October 10

For the second time, the authorities have seized a cellphone from Manpreet Singh Manna, a noted gangster, who is lodged inside the “Chakki Cell” (high security zone) of the Central Jail.

As per information, after the recovery, Manna allegedly threatened jail officials and even tried to hurt himself by banging his head against the barrack wall. Manna has been booked under Sections 506 and 186, IPC, and Section 52-A of the Prisons Act at the City police station.

Notably, Manna’s name had surfaced in the murder case of Sidhu Moosewala following which he was taken by the police to Bathinda on a production warrant.

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).
