Suspected Spy Pigeon Released After 8 Months in Indian Detention

A pigeon with Chinese writing on its wings was detained at an Indian port for eight months due to suspicion of espionage, despite being cleared of any wrongdoing. The bird was finally released after a newspaper report, letters to the police, and intervention from PETA India. The veterinary hospital that held the pigeon faced a dilemma, as they couldn't set it free due to the seriousness of the charge, but also didn't want to expose a healthy bird to sick and injured animals.

Gal Luft, Accuser of Bidens, Faces Charges and Accusations of Chinese Ties

Gal Luft, an Israeli professor and think tank co-founder, has been indicted on charges of arms trafficking and conspiring to flout US sanctions on Iran. Luft, who claims to have information on the Bidens' alleged ties to Chinese military intelligence, has been a fugitive since February and believes the charges against him are politically motivated. Despite his emergence as a figure in the Republican-led campaign against the Bidens, there is no evidence that he spoke out against them prior to his arrest. Luft's lawyer suggests that prominent Democrats may try to have him killed, and he hopes to gain favor with the GOP in the hopes of a future presidential pardon.
