KARACHI: Despite the FM’s insinuation that India was planning to attack it in the 3rd week of April, as a goodwill gesture Pakistan has released 100 fishermen from Central Jail here today.

According to details the released fishermen will be taken to Lahore and handed over tomorrow to the Indian authorities at Wagah Border.

Since there is no clear border, regularly uneducated fishermen from both the countries cross into the enemy waters and get caught.

The unending Indo-Pak folly of arresting each other’s fishermen continues!
