BSF apprehends four Pakistani fishermen in Kutch, seizes boat

On October 25, 2026, the Border Security Force (BSF) apprehended four Pakistani fishermen in the Sir Creek area of Kutch, India. Acting on specific intelligence inputs, BSF personnel caught the fishermen and seized a fishing boat near the Indo-Pak border in Gujarat's Kutch district. The fishermen, Kadir Thaimor, Muhammad Mussa, Azgar Thaimor, and Ahsan Jat, were all residents of Chach Jaan Khan village in Pakistan's Sindh province.

The BSF official revealed that the fishermen had entered Indian waters for crab-catching activities. The incident led to Indian and Pakistani diplomats summoning each other's representatives over the BSF's killing of two "infiltrators." Pakistan's Foreign Ministry accused Indian security forces of using "unprovoked lethal force against unarmed civilians."
