India seizes Pakistan's fishing boat near Sir creek

The Border Security Force (BSF) on Thursday seized one more abandoned Pakistani fishing boat near Sir Creek in Gujarat’s Kutch district on the Indo-Pak border during an extensive search operation in the area, officials said.

With this latest seizure, the total number of Pakistani fishing boats captured in the creek area has gone up to four in the last three days, they added.

“BSF has seized a Pakistani fishing boat in the Indian territory of the creek area today (Thursday).

Occupants of the boat fled to the neighbouring country before the boat was spotted. This is the fourth such boat seized by BSF troops during the last three days,” a senior BSF official said.
