According to initial reports, the fishermen sought refuge on top of the boat as it toppled over. However, the boat and men cannot be sighted any more.
Maritime Security Agency Colonel Omar has said that it may not be possible to rescue the men by sending boats owing to the high tide in the sea.
He further added that Pakistan Navy has been asked to send helicopters to rescue them.
This is a developing story and will be updated accordingly.
