The police arrested drug racket kingpin Kulvinder Singh from Hoshiarpur in Punjab, and brought him here on Friday. He was wanted in the case of the death of a student of the National Institute of Technology (NIT).

The body of Sujal, an M Tech student, was found in his hostel room on October 23 last year. The investigation pointed towards drug overdose as the cause of death.

SP Bhagat Singh Thakur said that it was found that the drug that Sujal consumed was allegedly procured from Kulvinder.

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).
