The Sri Lankan Navy arrested 29 Tamil Nadu fishermen today accused of poaching, reports the Hindu.
The arrests come just days after President Rajapaksa pledged to release all detained Indian fishermen as an act of goodwill towards the newly elected Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The men were arrested off the coast of Thalaimannar, along with six trailers, said the Sri Lankan Navy.
