Pigeon Held In India On Suspicion Of Spying For Pakistan

Indian police are holding a pigeon under armed guard after it was caught on an alleged spy mission for neighboring Pakistan. The bird was found by a local resident in India's Punjab state, which borders Pakistan, and taken to a police station 25 miles from the city of Amritsar.

The pigeon had a ring around its foot and a Pakistani phone number and address stamped on its body in red ink. Officials directed that no one should be allowed to visit the pigeon, which police said was possibly on a 'special mission of spying.' The pigeon shown here is not the one currently held in prison, it's just another spy pigeon.
