"These three are Indian Mujahideen operatives and linked to a Lashkar figure so it proves that the two groups have close links at some level," Kumar said, adding the suspects had been picked up after traveling to the capital.

The city of Pune in the western state of Maharashtra saw a major restaurant bombing in 2010 killed 17 people.
