KHAMMAM: The farmers of Dammaigudem village in Tirumalayapalem mandal were taken by surprise when they found a pigeon with a rubber tag, in one of their fields on Wednesday.

While checking the rubber tag they spotted a message on it and realised that the text was in a non-Indian language. The farmers immediately contacted the police, who in turn found that the message was written in Chinese.

The villagers now suspect that it was a coded message sent among spies. The police later shifted the pigeon to the local station for inquiry. The incident has become a hot topic in Dammaigudem.
