दत्तवाडी, पुणे पोलीस स्टेशनचे पोलीस शिपाई सद्दाम शेख व अजित पोकरे यांनी शिवणेतील बागुल उद्यानालगतच्या ओढ्यात वाहून जात असलेल्या व्यक्तीचे प्राण वाचवले. स्वतः जीव धोक्यात घालून त्यांनी दाखवलेले शाैर्य 'सदरक्षणाय खलनिग्रहनाय' हे ब्रीद सार्थ ठरवणारे आहे. त्यांच्या कामगिरीला सलाम! <a href="https://t.co/kDDVQl9Ykn">pic.twitter.com/kDDVQl9Ykn</a></p>
