The Pakistan marines on Monday detained 30 Indian fishermen including five boats off the Gujarat coast.

Earlier, the Pakistan Marine Security Agency had apprehended 70 Indian fishermen and seized their 11 fishing boats near International Maritime Boundary Limit here.

The two countries frequently carry out such arrests as the maritime border in the Arabian Sea is poorly defined and many fishing boats lack the technology needed to be certain of their precise location.
