Now that The Star is 40 years old, they decided to publish some of their old newspaper articles, bringing fond nostalgic tinge in our otherwise mundane lives!

ACP (Assistant Commissioner of Police) Balasundram who, with his boss, the feared DSP (Deputy Superintendent of Police) used to give hell to bandits like Botak Chin is seen in one of the photos. Aging gracefully, now almost 80, has put his swashbuckling gun wielding days behind for a quieter environment with his children and grand children!
