The eight SIMI activists killed in a gunfight with police on Monday had escaped from Bhopal Central Jail here using "toothbrush and wood" to forge keys to open the locks of their jail barracks and flee, police claimed on Monday.
The DGP said three police personnel were injured in the attack, adding that police fired 43 rounds to kill the eight SIMI activists.
Four country-made pistols and three knives were seized from the killed persons, Chaudhary said. No mobile phone was seized.
When the media asked questions regarding the clothes and shoes worn by the eight men and claims of villagers that the men were not armed, the DGP said these issues were a matter of inquiry.
