Among the 17 people who lost their lives in the attack were waiter Gokul Nepali, while two waiters, Paras Rimal and Shrikrishna Thapa, and cashier Pravin Pant sustained injuries. "Our family is happy that two people have been arrested. The punishment should be so strict for the guilty that no other person should ever dare to commit such an offence again," Kharose said. u00a0 Smita's husband Dnyneshwar started the eatery in April 1989 after a German, Klaus Woody Gulzeit, advised him to open an eatery to attract the foreigners who frequent Koregaon Park.
