Five Pakistani nationals on board a boat were arrested from near the International Marine Border (IMB) in Kutch district of Gujarat, Indian Coast Guard officials said on Saturday.
"Five Pakistanis on board a boat had ventured into the Indian territory near the IMB on Friday," they told reporters adding that they have been arrested and their boat has been seized.
The five men will be taken to the Joint Interrogation Centre in Bhuj for questioning to find out their identity. Coastal security has been enhanced along the shores after the 26/11 attacks in which terrorists had taken the sea route to carry out the strikes in Mumbai.
