PIDGEONHOLED: Bird Accused of Being a Chinese Spy is Freed After Eight Months in a Cage
This bird has flown.
Espionage is such a big deal, nowadays, that not even the birds are escaping close scrutiny.
This seemingly fictional story takes place between India and China, close BRICS partners who are also involved in a bitter frontier feud.
It arose now that a pigeon accused of being a Chinese spy has just been cleared by police and released back into the wild, after eight months detained.
Sky News reported:
“The bird was detained by officers after it was captured in May last year near a port in Mumbai, news agency Press Trust of India reported.
It was found with two rings tied to its legs featuring words that appeared to be Chinese.
