Nirupama Subramanian

ISLAMABAD: One hundred Indian fishermen who were detained by Pakistan were repatriated on Saturday after the government here released them as a “goodwill gesture.”

The fishermen were released from Landhi jail in Karachi on Friday, and arrived at the Wagah border this afternoon in two buses.

They crossed over into India after completing formalities. A team of Indian officials from the Indian High Commission here was present at Wagah border to facilitate the procedure.
