Exclusive: SIMI chief's shocking revelations

August 22, 2008
He said that the SIMI did try to sort out the differences and they met at Ujjain. Nagori found that majority of the members supported him. This is when he decided to break away and carry forward the outfit with his ideology.

Nagori also spoke about his idea of recruiting more educated youth into the outfit. He said that persons from an IT background were preferred and in this regard a technical cell was also started. He said the idea of recruiting persons from an IT background was mooted because these persons could remain low key and they were excellent planners.

Nagori also mentioned the Shaheen Force, an all-woman wing of SIMI. He explained during his confession and narco-analysis that women could convince their children easily to take the SIMI route and hence he had decided to float this wing.

He felt that women could help boost the membership of SIMI.
