dacoit

1 My dacoit was in a great state of excitement.

2 Wun Thu objected strongly to British rule, and emphasized his objection by making trouble with his bands of patriots, whom we called dacoits, robbers.

3 The "dacoits" or brigands of India were of the same stamp as their European colleagues.

4 He was much more terrified of tigers than of dacoits.

5 Having got over his first surprise, the dacoit, with an amusing air of assumed innocence, requested us to go and spend the night in his tent with him and his mates.

6 So the outrage was set down as the work of dacoits, and although in point of fact nothing had been stolen I felt no call on me to disturb this finding of the magistrate.

7 She counselled womenfolk about the evils of banditry, turning the mothers or daughters of dacoits against the practice.

8 The theory was that these men were dacoits attempting to terrorise the place, preparatory to attack and plunder.

9 Then did I realize that I was in the presence of a gang of armed dacoits.

10 The band of dacoits approached and left the yaks in charge of two women.

11 He said the Chindwin valley was filling with dacoits, i.e., brigands, and that their position was very precarious.

12 I have had dacoit leaders with prices on their heads walk into my camp.

13 They had, however, the satisfaction of knowing that the dacoits had not, as usual, accompanied robbery with murder.

14 The fallen dacoit had trained it perfectly before he dropped, and a comrade now touched off the piece.

15 She issued such government arms as she had in the house, and the villagers went and pursued the dacoits by the cattle tracks, and next day they overtook them, and there was a fight.

16 About fifty people live in the fort, and when they saw the battery approaching they took the soldiers for dacoits and shut the gates against them.

17 On one occasion a band of more than a hundred Thugs fell in with a party of twenty-seven dacoits who had with them stolen property of Rs.

18 In that movie, released in 1971, he played a dacoit — an armed bandit — who abducts the lead character’s love interest.

19 Waking at sunrise we were startled to find ourselves surrounded by a band of dacoits.

20 The dacoits had entered, and stolen everything they could possibly carry off.
