An Indian law enforcement incident recently made headlines when they apprehended a Pakistani pigeon on suspicion of espionage
The bird had crossed the contentious border and raised suspicions due to a mysterious ring bearing printed numbers on its ankle
It turned out, however, that these numbers were nothing more than the contact information of the pigeon's owner
But before dismissing this incident as a bizarre anomaly, it's worth noting that this was not the first case of avian espionage in the region
