January 14th, 2010 - 12:09 am ICT by IANSGandhinagar, Jan 13 (IANS) Seven Pakistani fishermen were picked up by Border Security Force (BSF) officials after their fishing craft intruded into Indian coastal waters, police said here Wednesday.
The Pakistani fishing craft Al Siddique entered into Indian coastal waters late Tuesday night and was intercepted by the Border Security Force (BSF) almost from the mouth of the Kori creek.
The seven people were handed over to the local police which have moved them to the joint interrogation centre in Bhuj, the district headquarters of Kutch, for interrogation by the various security agencies.
