The pigeon was caught a few days ago in the Khatmari area of the RS Pura sector by BSF men on guard at the IB. A handwritten note in Urdu and Hindi was found attached to the bird with a rubber band. The note warned of a potential IED blast at Jammu railway station and carried messages saying, "Kashmir Hamara Hai (Kashmir is ours)" and "Waqt Aa Gaya Hai (Time has come)."
