ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Saturday released 198 Indian fishermen after completion of their sentences and verification of national status.

In a statement issued here, Foreign Office Spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch said the repatriation of Indian fishermen was completed last night through Wagha border.

“Their release is in line with our consistent policy of not politicizing the prisoner issues and taking a humanitarian view of the matter,” she added.
