  "account": "The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) has arrested a Town Planning Officer and a senior assistant from Moinabad Municipality for accepting a ₹75,000 bribe to avoid taking action against a construction project. The two officials, identified as Gundu Vani and Yelamoni Sudarshan, were apprehended by ACB sleuths during a trap on September 30. Sudarshan, a former panchayat secretary now working on deputation as a senior assistant, allegedly facilitated the bribe being passed to Vani by the complainant. The ACB claims that Vani and Sudarshan acted improperly and dishonestly in their official duties to gain an unfair advantage. Both officials are set to be produced before an Additional Special Judge for judicial remand at Nampally. The complainant's identity remains undisclosed for security reasons, and the investigation is ongoing.",
