This is interesting.  I thought that the parrot would say something that implicated the suspect, but it's a behavior thing . . .

A pet parrot in India has helped cops nab the killer of a woman and her pet dog. stock.xchng

A talking parrot has helped Indian police crack an intriguing murder mystery and led the cops to arrest the killer.

In the western Indian city of Agra in Uttar Pradesh state, a 45-year-old woman and her pet dog were found murdered at her residence on 20 February.

The victim, Neelam Sharma, was the wife of Vijay Sharma, the editor of a Hindi daily.

The city police had been baffled by the murder mystery till Neelam's husband got a clue from the parrot, which showed a change in behaviour whenever a relative, Vijay's nephew Ashutosh, visited the house after the incident.

"During discussions too, whenever Ashutosh's name was mentioned, the parrot would start screeching. This raised my suspicion and I informed the police," Sharma told the Times of India.

Hmmm . . . I know that Vesta will answer this one. :runaway: :tongue:

I'd expect a few insightful comments from the resident tuba player as well.  :popcorn:
