With this, the total number of Pakistani citizens held in connection with illegal stay by police in Jigani on Bengaluru outskirts has reached 17, they said.

"In a fresh case registered in this regard, 10 Pakistani nationals, including six women, were arrested on Tuesday from Jigani jurisdiction (near Bengaluru).
