In one of the rare cases of security breach at the prime minister Dr Manmohan Singh's [Images] residence at 7 Race Course Road two girls and a boy drove through the first gate of the well guarded VIP and drove up to the electronically operated gate before the Special Protection Group men turned them back. Media persons were present to cover the cabinet meeting that was in progress at that time.

Delhi police has taken the three; Yogita, working with Sahara group; Veena; and the boy called Imran to Ram Manohar Lohia hospital to find out if they were drunk. Yogita and Veena are airhostesses by profession and work for private airlines company Air Sahara.

Air Sahara has said that the two hostesses were recent recruits and have been grounded for the last two months on charges of indiscipline and absentism. The termination of their sevices was already in the process and it would be executed after this incident, he added.

Deputy commissioner New Delhi district Anand Mohan refused to take calls from journalists or share information with them.

The two girls hail from Jaipur and claimed that the SPG men at the first gate did not ask whether they had an appointment with PM nor did they ask for any identification. "They just let us in," Yogita, who was on the wheel, told a television journalist.

"We wanted to meet prime minister. We thought that the appointment is given at the first gate," she said.

The second girl Veena asked a scribe what they should do now that the police has taken away their Sonata car. "Call up your parents or relatives and get hold of a lawyer," the journalist advised.

Till the last report came in the police had not registered first information report against the three as the SPG had told them this was not a serious breach of PM's security. But the police aren't taking any chances and they would be interrogating the intruders with top intelligence officials before they are either booked or allowed to go.

Efforts are being made to establish the ownership of the car to find out the linkages between the owner and the occupants.
