Six unidentified men looted cash and a weapon at gunpoint from a petrol pump in Sirhind on Monday.

The men stopped at the petrol pump and attacked an employee after asking him to fill their Innova car with fuel.

“Then they entered the cabin, robbed the cash and also took my weapon with them,” said a security guard at the pump.

Anaj Mandi police station has registered a case against the unknown men.

Police said that the incident took place around 2.45 am and efforts were on to nab the accused.

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).
