Indian authorities seize drugs worth about Rs 3,000 crore from a boat in the Arabian Sea and detain five Pakistani nationals, according to reports. The Coast Guard says the vessel and its crew are taken to Mumbai under armed escort.
The seized drugs, the boat, and the crew are brought in for joint interrogation and further legal steps. NDTV specifically notes that the detainees are Pakistani nationals and that the case moves through interrogation and related proceedings after the seizure.
Other outlets describe the same incident, including that the boat is Iranian and that the crew includes Pakistani nationals. While reporting emphasizes different framing—such as the location at sea versus the value of the haul—sources broadly agree on the core details: the seizure amount, the involvement of an Iranian boat, and detention of five Pakistani nationals, followed by transfer to Mumbai for investigation.
