Indian Police Arrests Another Pigeon Suspected Of Spying For Pakistan
Kunal Anand | September 25, 2016
A white pigeon, apparently from across the border, with "some words written in Urdu" has been found in Punjab's Hoshiarpur district, police said today.
Naresh Kumar, a resident of Motla village here spotted the bird at his house, and was alerted after he spotted something written on its wings in Urdu. He took it to the local police, who took the bird into custody today.
The bird was not only inspected, but also subjected to X-rays.
"Police found some numerical digits stamped on the bird's wings. We are trying to ascertain if it is a mobile number and if the pigeon came from Pakistan," said DSP, Mukerian, Bhupinder Singh. "There is a stamp and something written in Urdu on its wings. Besides, an eleven-digit number was also found on its body," SHO, Mukerian, Jaswinderpal Singh said. "We got the writing translated Sunday, Wednesday, Thursday is written on the pigeon's body," he said.
Officials from the state intelligence and the Army also inspected the bird, police said.
Last year, a pigeon with some words written in Urdu was found by villagers in the Bamial sector of Pathankot district, which is just a few kilometres away from the Indo-Pak border.
