A suspected Pakistani boat was found abandoned in a creek area along the coast of Gujarat’s Kutch district on Wednesday, BSF sources said. Fishing equipment was found in the boat during the initial search, and nothing suspicious was recovered, they said.
Security in the area was stepped up, and a further probe was under way into the unclaimed boat, they said. While Indian fishermen are barred from entering the creek area of the Arabian Sea, Pakistani fishermen enter the Indian side to catch fish.
