Pune blast toll rises to 11
A student from New Delhi, Aditya Jaiprakash Mehta, who was injured in Saturday's terror blast here, succumbed to his injuries in a hospital here early Wednesday, police said. With this, the toll in the blast at Pune's German Bakery goes up to 11.

Ankik Dhar, who was an IIT Kharagpur alumnus, was working with the global financial services firm JP Morgan in Mumbai and had gone to Pune to meet his sister. Ankik's friends want nothing but death for the perpetrators of the crime. Even anonymous users are posting rest in peace scraps on his Orkut profile.
One of his friend scrapped him: "we'll miss you forever and ever......I dont think I'll ever be able to play football again.....pls come back to save my shots...please...please..please"

Another friend, Saptarshi wrote, "I don't know where this mindless violence will take us...but it seems so very empty that we talk and mourn and grieve and cry for a day, and the pain seems to wither away...my deepest feelings go out to your parents...and my immense hatred to those culpable...keep smiling is all that i can ever say..."

"How dare they touch Pune?" fumed Swaroopa Sanap on Facebook. A community on Facebook, "In Memory of those who died in the Pune Koregaon Park bomb blast", had 13,942 members at the last count.
Within hours of the blast, which shook the city, Facebook had a community titled 'In memory of all those who died in the Pune Koregaon Bomb Blast'. By Sunday morning another group called 'RIP Pune's German Bakery came up with events for these groups ranging from keeping a minute's silence to blasting the government for their inability to provide any adequate security for soft targets like these.

	Rebuilding German Bakery
	Shrinath Navghane, a regular visitor at the eatery, has started a move to get it rebuilt. after discussing with other "regulars", Shrinath, along with friend Sahil Khan, decided to gather donations to reconstruct his favourite food joint blown up in the blast. The duo has formed a group 'rebuilding German Bakery' on Facebook and have appealed to people to contribute. The group formed on Sunday night had already crossed 2,513 members across India. The group has also released a spam alert saying : A group member associated with rebuilding German Bakery support group has posted a similar 'rebuilding.. ' fund raiser event. no official fund raise has been announced yet & certainly i am surprised to see such attempts being made in the name of charity. Please do not pay to anyone but the owners, we will monitor this closely.

Writes V Khemnar an MBA student from a prominent city college, writes on his Facebook status message link, "Government says we cannot protect our citizens as our entire force was busy protecting the release of MNIK".

"It is really ironic that we are ill equipped to protect the city. If the city police would deploy cops at such regular intervals across the city, as they did at the theatres on Saturday then this might not have happened.

Who lost eventually? We the people,"" he writes a reply in anguish

While a post on the Facebook community of 'In memory of all those who died in the Pune Koregaon Bomb Blast', by Neerajana Datta read, "Lost my 3 scul (school) friends."

Another regular at the German Bakery, Olivia Joseph who works at one of the prominent hotels nearby writes on her wall, "That place was my favourite hangout for my evening cuppa of masala chai, after my shifts...I hope those who did this rot in hell,"

Apart from mourning the victims, the netizens were vocal in expressing their rage against the government's lack of ability to bring the guilty to justice.

However, along with the same feeling of anger and guilt is also a feeling of standing tall amidst ruins, as this post by L Shakih reads, "We can built a better German Bakery again...Keep the spirit alive."

We promise not to rest in peace till we avenge your loss!!!!!!!!!!! wherever u r hope that the place is better than this bloody world!!!!!!!!I never knew you!!!!but ur loss is like losing a friend..........
