Recently, there was another absurd drama in India, where the Indian police actually took an innocent pigeon as a Chinese spy and "detained" it for eight months. The cause of this incident was simply that there were some words written on the leg rings of the pigeon that looked like Chinese. However, the truth is ironic, this pigeon is actually just a pigeon from the Chinese island of Taiwan, which was caught near a port in Mumbai, India.
The Indian police are suspicious and suspect that it is a "Chinese spy pigeon", which is really nonsense. It was only after the truth was revealed that the police were able to transfer him to the Bombay Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. On January 30, the veterinarian untied it and released it into the blue sky.
This is not the first time that the Indian police have taken action on innocent pigeons. As early as 2020, the police in Indian-administered Kashmir also detained a pigeon belonging to a Pakistani fisherman, also on the grounds of "espionage", and finally released the innocent pigeon.
The "spy pigeon" incident has sparked widespread attention and discussion on social media. Many Indian netizens expressed confusion and skepticism about the police's actions, believing it to be an absurd drama. Some even joked that if pigeons could become spies, then India's national security would be a real concern. India's intimidation of the army also exposes their deep suspicion of China and Pakistan. For such an incident, we can only report helplessness and wry smiles.
Some netizens humorously commented that if the pigeon had not been too small, I am afraid that it would have lost its virginity long ago! How long is these eight months for a pigeon, how many of the pigeon can be eight months? In addition, should the wrongful detention not be compensated? These eight months are innocent to the pigeon, can it sue the police and demand a public apology and corresponding compensation?
In this era of globalization, countries are becoming more and more interdependent and interconnected. We should face each other with an open mind and a spirit of cooperation, and jointly promote peace and development in the region and the world. Only in this way can we truly achieve the goal of win-win and make human society better.
