The Jagraon police yesterday arrested a woman and seized 5 gm of heroin and 760 intoxicating tablets from her possession.

The suspect has been identified as Vimla of Transport Nagar. A case under the NDPS Act was registered.

ASI Anwar Masih said a tip-off was received that the woman, who is into the drug smuggling trade, came to Sohia village, near Jagraon, to deliver drugs to her clients yesterday.

Accordingly, the police party laid a trap. After intercepting the woman at the village, the police rounded up her. During the checking of her belongings, heroin, intoxicating tablets and a digital weighing machine were recovered, Masih said.

The ASI said the woman also had a criminal past as she had already been booked by the police in several drug smuggling cases in the past. After coming out on bail, she continued the notorious trade. Most of the clients of the suspect were youths.

The police would seek police remand of the woman so that in her further questioning entire drug supply line could be busted and more persons involved in the smuggling trade be held.

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 four 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 paper. 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).
