Fifty eight Indian fishermen were arrested on Thursday and their 11 boats seized by Pakistani authorities for allegedly violating the country’s territorial waters.
The Pakistan Maritime Security Agency (MSA) arrested them in the the Arabian Sea.
“They violated the territorial waters in the Arabian Sea despite several warnings by our patrol boats,” Ahmed Reza, an official with the agency, said.
He said the MSA had also seized 11 boats and handed over the arrested fishermen to the docks police.
