A 45-year-old man named Macchindra Rambhau Bandal, who was injured during a dacoity at his residence in Davanmalik Wasti near Karde village in Shirur taluka of Pune district on December 4, died while undergoing treatment at the hospital today. Angry villagers staged a rasta roko on Saturday morning demanding that the dacoits be arrested.

About five unidentified men armed with sharp weapons had barged into Bandal’s house located at an isolated spot, about two kilometeres from Karde village, at around 10.30 pm. Bandal, his wife Sharada, elder son Deepak, daughter-in-law Sheetal and younger son Navath were sleeping in the house.
