Pakistan sent back 22 Indian fishermen who crossed over to India through the Attari-Wagah Joint Check Post (JCP) near here on Saturday.
According to the information received, most of them belong to Gujarat, who violated the maritime boundary while fishing and entered the Pakistani territorial waters, prompting the Pakistan maritime authorities to arrest them.
The fishermen have been released after completing their sentence in Pakistani jail. The Border Ssecurity Force (BSF) handed them over to the district administration for their boarding and lodging arrangements till they leave for their native areas.
