The 2012 Pune bombings was a series of four coordinated[3] low-intensity bombing attacks that occurred on 1 August 2012 across Pune,[4][5] the ninth-largest metropolis in India.[6] As of October 2012, Indian Mujahideen, a terrorist group based in India, is suspected to be behind the attacks.[1][7]

The explosions occurred at locations within a radius of 1 km in Jangli Maharaj Road: in front of Balgandharva Auditorium, opposite to KFC restaurant near Garware Bridge, Dena Bank branch at Jangli Maharaj Road, and in front of a McDonald's restaurant.[8] A fifth live bomb found on JM Road was later defused.[5] The bombs left one injured.

The bombings took place on the evening when the new Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde was scheduled to visit the Tilak Smarak Ranga Mandir, a play theatre in the city, for an award ceremony.[8][10]
