The Gujarat Police is searching for three more persons allegedly involved in the attack on Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi's car in Banaskantha district.

Local Congress members claimed the three persons have been identified as Bhagwandas Patel, Mor Singh Rao and Mukesh Thakkar.

They are associated with the ruling BJP and are among the conspirators of the attack, the Congress members alleged.

The police had yesterday arrested Jayesh Darji, an office-bearer of the BJP's youth wing in Banaskantha, after his name cropped up during investigation, an official said.

"We are trying to track down three more persons, who are on the run. Their names came up during the investigation into the attack on Gandhi's vehicle," said Dhanera circle police inspector J N Khant.

A stone was thrown at Gandhi's on Friday when he was on a visit to the flood-hit areas.
