"Spy Pigeon Cleared: Released After 8 Months Detention"

Indian police detained a suspected Chinese spy pigeon for eight months before discovering it was actually a racing bird from Taiwan that had escaped. The pigeon, initially captured near a port in Mumbai with Chinese-looking words tied to its legs, was released into the wild after being cleared of espionage suspicions. This isn't the first time a bird has been involved in such incidents in India, with previous cases including a pigeon from Pakistan and another found with a threatening note to the Indian Prime Minister.
