KARACHI: Pakistan has arrested 25 Indian fisherman for violating the territorial waters of the country, its maritime security agency said Monday.

“We are preparing documents to produce all of them in court,” police official Mohammad Anwer told AFP. Indian and Pakistani fishermen are frequently detained on the charge, as the two countries’ borders are not clearly defined in the Arabian Sea.

Many are sent to jail where they languish for at least a year before being handed over to the authorities in their homeland.
