At least 29 Indian fishermen were today arrested by Pakistani authorities for allegedly entering the country's territorial waters.
The fishermen were arrested by Maritime Security Agency (MSA) officials, who also confiscated their five boats during a routine patrol.
The fishermen were almost 10 kilometres inside Pakistan territorial waters when they were arrested, Express News TV quoted an MSA official as saying.
This is not the first time such an incident has taken place.
Pakistan maritime security forces frequently arrest Indian fishermen and seize their boats for fishing in its territorial waters.
However, In May Pakistan had freed 151 Indian fishermen ahead of Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's visit to India to attend Prime Minister Narendra Modi's swearing-in ceremony.
