Abohar, August 19

A youth wanted in connection with a heroin smuggling case that was lodged around 5 months ago in Hindumalkot area in Sriganganagar district has been arrested.

On Saturday night, Superintendent of Police Gaurav Yadav confirmed the arrest of 19-year-old Husandeep Singh of Daulatpura village.

On March 12, the BSF had recovered 3.490 kg heroin in 6 packets from Hindumalkot. The Narcotics Control Bureau had registered a case. He will soon be handed over to Punjab Police, an officer said.

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).
