What were Marco polo's crimes to go to jail?

Marco Polo was imprisoned during the Venetian-Genoese wars after being captured by the Genoese in 1298. He was accused of being a spy and was held as a prisoner of war. While in prison, he recounted his travels and adventures, which were later documented in "The Travels of Marco Polo." His time in jail was not due to crimes in the traditional sense, but rather the circumstances of war and conflict.
