Pigeon held in threat against PMModi

-

Indian police said onMonday they have taken a pigeon into custody after it was found carrying a warning note to Prime Minister NarendraMo­di near the nation’s heavily militarize­d border with Pakistan. Border Security Force officers found the bird at Pathankot in the northern state of Punjab, where Pakistan-based militants launched a deadly attack on an air force base in January. “We took it into custody last evening,” said Pathankot police inspector Rakesh Kumar. “The BSF found it with a note in Urdu saying something like ‘Modi, we’re not the same people from 1971. Now each and every child is ready to fight against India’.”
