The three Tamil Nadu fishermen who escaped from Kuwait and were arrested in Mumbai were released on bail from Arthur Road jail on February 18. But, they are extremely distressed at being treated like criminals. “The Mumbai police should have registered an FIR against us after a thorough investigation. We were not criminals and had left Kuwait under miserable conditions,” said one of the victims.
