Dangerous Pakistani spy caught in India ;-)

I love spy stories. The sagacity, sensitivity and sharpness of spies and their motives has always been intriguing to me. Earlier this year I was so swept away by the agility of Israel’s Mossad spy agents who recruited 26 suspects and so meticulously planned the assasination of Hamas senior Mahmoud al-Mabhouh. I closely watched the planning and execution and it was so dumbfounding.

Well Israel spies specially the Mosad agents are known to be the best in the world, so no debate on that. Towards our India, we recently read about women spy Madhuri Gupta who was posted at the Islamabad High Commission. The diplomat allegedly fell in love with Rana, her Pakistani handler, and began selling secrets to him. Sources say that in her confession to the police, she said she also wanted revenge – she had been overlooked for promotion, and was unhappy with her service conditions. The story of Gupta reminded me of how jealousy and office politics of de-promotions and promotion of others can effect someone.

Now, forget Gupta’s episode. There is a more interesting spy story that has surfaced recently. Guess what? An intelligent and dangerous Pakistan spy was caught near the Indo-Pak border. It was none other than a pigeon carrying a Pakistani phone number and address on its body besides a rubber ring in its feet. It could not have been more interesting. I am having a hearty laugh here. So what is the version of our police? Police suspect that the pigeon, which landed in Indian territory, may be on ‘special mission of spying’ and might have been pushed by Pakistan intelligence agency Inter Services Intelligence.

The pigeon is being kept in an air conditioned room which is being guarded by policemen. The doctor from the state animal husbandry department carried out a medical examination of the bird. Now there is nothing very very hilarious about this episode, it has been around since the second world war. At the height of the cold war, the US and Soviet Union used pigeons as spies. Worse still, even Dolphins were trained to spy and report back on the whereabouts of enemy submarines.

Whatever, now the Indian RAW has proved it is doing its job right. We have got a pigeon spy. They are not jobless. We got to call a toast to celebrate. Well done!!
