Pigeon Carries Threat to Jammu: Security Tightened

A pigeon carrying a threat note to target Jammu railway station was captured in RS Pura, prompting heightened security measures. This incident marks the first time a threat was delivered via pigeon from Pakistan. Security agencies are investigating the potential threat or mischief.

Security forces in Jammu have intercepted a pigeon from RS Pura, carrying a chilling threat to blow up the Jammu railway station. The incident has prompted an immediate increase in security measures, as police officials work tirelessly to protect the region.

This marks an unprecedented event, as it is the first instance of a pigeon being used to deliver threats from the Pakistan side, despite previous instances involving balloons and flags. Authorities are treating the threat with utmost seriousness given the current security climate.

The pigeon was apprehended near the International Border on August 18, with a message in Urdu and English alluding to a planned IED attack. Security experts believe the bird might have been specially trained for this ominous task, as police ramp up investigations to determine whether the act was a mischievous prank or a calculated plot.
