Pakistan has arrested 34 Indian fishermen for allegedly violating the country’s territorial waters, nearly 10 days after releasing 60 prisoners from India as a goodwill gesture, officials said Wednesday.
The fishermen, arrested on Tuesday, have been handed over to the police, a Pakistan Maritime Security Agency spokesman said.
“They will appear before a judicial magistrate who will decide on their judicial remand,” he said.
This is the first time since January that the maritime security agency has arrested Indian fishermen.
