While Sunil and Devendra was convicted for planning the terror attack, Bhavesh executed it and planted the bomb.<\/p>\n<p>The court on Monday directed the NIA to arrest the three absconding accused \u2013 Ram Chandra Kalsangar, Sandeep Dange and Suresh Nair. It sought an explanation as to why the NIA had failed to arrest the trio and directed the NIA, DGP to file a written report on the efforts being made by the agency to find them.<\/p>\n<p>The investigation into the Ajmer Dargah blast case was conducted by the Rajasthan anti terrorist squad (ATS) before it was handed over to the NIA. The ATS had accused Sadhvi and Indresh Kumar of being members of Abhinav Bharat, a Hindu extremist outfit.<\/p>\n<p>The explosion at the popular Sufi shrine in Ajmer in October 2007 killed three people and wounded 17.
