The Pakistan Maritime Security Agency (PMSA) Wednesday apprehended 22 Indian fishermen off the Gujarat coast, said an official of a fishermen's association. Two days ago, the PMSA had detained 34 Indian fishermen off the Gujarat coast. The PMSA seized four fishing boats during the operation near the IMBL off the Gujarat coast Wednesday morning, said Lodhari. Lodhari claimed that Pakistani maritime agencies were capturing Indian fishermen at regular intervals near the IMBL. The PMSA's action comes close on heels of Pakistan's "goodwill gesture" of releasing 100 Indian fishermen, mostly from Gujarat, just last month.
