Pakistan arrests 61 Indian fisherman
The fishermen were fishing in Pakistani waters when Maritime Security Agency arrested them and handed them over to the police at the Docks Police Station in Kemari, Karachi.
The 61 offenders were then taken to a court for custody and will be transported to Malir jail.
This is not the first time that Indian fishermen have violated territorial water boundaries. On September 29, Maritime Security Agency had arrested 25 Indian fishermen and seized their boats for the same offence.
Both Indian and Pakistani fishermen are frequently arrested and detained for fishing in the neighbouring waters.

@Bewildered I would like to read your comment when Indian Cost Guard will arrest Poor Pakistani fishermen. Politics should be bw Politicians, War bw Solders.
They should be dealt in exactly the same way as Pakistani fishermen are dealt by India. No shows of goodwill this time after dozens of innocent Pakistanis brutally killed by Indian BSF shelling.
@Stranger: Plead the same with Indian government instead if you want any special favors from Pakistan this time.
Please let them go . They are poor and uneducated and dont know any better. Think of their families who will perish of sheer hunger. Dont make them a pawn in your political game .
