Three more activists, including a trainer, of banned Students Islamic Movements of India were arrested by the Madhya Pradesh police on Wednesday.
"The trio identified as Amaan, Zakir Lala and Irfan Chhipa, were arrested from different places on Wednesday morning," Superintendent of Police (Indore) Anshuman Singh Yadav told PTI in Indore, adding that they belong to Nihalpura and Juna Risala areas of the city.
Yadav said Amaan was engaged in training SIMI activists, while Zakir had been the local chief of the banned outfit.
Chhipa was held for helping SIMI and carrying out other illegal activities. Earlier, he was arrested in 2006 on the same grounds, he said.
During interrogation, all the three confessed to have been working to strengthen the organisation at the behest of top SIMI leaders, he said.
More arrests were possible in the coming days in the wake of revelations made by the arrested activists, Yadav added.
Meanwhile, police have filed cases against them for involvement in illegal activities and for helping anti-national elements.
With Wednesday's arrest, 24 SIMI activists have been held within a week.
For the first time on March 27, police had arrested 13 SIMI activists, including its Madhya Pradesh Chief Safdar Nagori, who have been remanded to police custody till April 11.
Following this operation, seven more were arrested on March 31 and one was held on Tuesday.

The strong nationalistic government of BJP in MP might explain the sustained operation against SIMI. If it was in a Congress ruled state, the operation might have been called of long before or might have been just an eye-wash.

RE:Decimate SIMIby NASIM ZAMAN on Apr 02, 2008 03:33 PMMaobadis is the biggest danger to India, much bigger than SIMI. Maobadis attack cities and towns and occupies them for looting and killing and storms jails and frees criminals. They kill police personnels with bombs and mines. But nothing is done and said against them. Because they are not muslims. SIMI may be bad but not as bad as Maobadis. Awake up, you fool, before these Maobadis make your courtyard red and bayonet you.

Maobadis or Jehadis - two sides of the same coin. Terrorism. Both must be liquidated.
