A pigeon suspected of being trained as a spy by Pakistan has been detained in India after it was seen wearing a “coded ring.”The bird was captured by residents in Manyari village near the international border that separates Indian- and Pakistan-controlled areas in Kashmir last Sunday, May 24. The senior superintendent of police in Kathua, a town in Kashmir, also pointed out that they found “a ring tagged to its foot on which some numbers are written.”The officer later added that they have already begun an investigation into the incident. Meanwhile, another police source told the publication that the ring attached to the pigeon had “alphabets and numbers” written on it. In June 2018, a pigeon with markings on its body that were partly written in Urdu, Pakistan’s national language, was spotted in another village near the border.
