"These fishermen are in police custody after they were released by a district court. While 82 fishermen were lodged in Dwarka jail, six more fishermen were in a jail in Kutchh after their arrest. There are six minor boys among them who were lodged in a remand home in Dwarka," Devbhoomi Dwarka SP Jagdish Patel told PTI.
Patel said the fishermen will be taken to Jamnagar from where they will be taken to the border.
The relief came in the wake of Modi calling up the Pakistan Prime Minister to wish him on the occasion of Ramzan on June 16 and stressing the need for having "peaceful and friendly" bilateral ties.
Modi had also conveyed to Sharif, India's decision to release detained Pakistani fishermen on the occasion of Ramzan, a move seen as a bid to lower tensions between the two countries.
Senior vice-president of Gujarat Fishermen Association Veljibhai Masani said governments of India and Pakistan should have released all fishermen lodged in their respective jails, on the humanitarian ground.
