The accused had looted around Rs 8,000 and four-five mobile phones at gunpoint from Green Hotel along the Bathinda-Bhucho road on March 11. Acting on intelligence inputs that the suspects were spotted in the Bhucho Mandi area, multiple police teams launched a search operation, he added.

During the operation, the police spotted a suspicious vehicle with a Bathinda registration number. As the officers approached the vehicle, a criminal opened fire. In retaliatory firing, suspect Satnam Singh sustained a gunshot wound on the leg. He was admitted to a hospital for treatment. All six gang members were arrested.

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).
