Pakistan Maritime Security Agency (PSMA) captured 72 Indian fishermen and seized their 13 boats.
The fishing boats, all from Porbandar, were in the international waters near Sir Creek, the disputed coastal strip off Gujarat coast, when they were seized, he said.
“This is third time in a week that PSMA has captured Indian fishermen and their boats,” he said.
Earlier, Pakistan used to release Indian fishermen, has stopped doing so after the November 26 Mumbai terror attacks.
