  "account": "A woman in Kanuru village, Krishna district was arrested for allegedly forging her deceased husband's death certificate to receive widow pension, according to prosecutors. Yeramsetti Rama Devi, who was separated from her husband Murali Krishna due to family disputes, approached Sanitary Inspector D. Antony and asked for the fake document in exchange for a bribe of ₹15,000. The Sanitary Inspector allegedly complied with her request. Following a complaint by Tadigada Municipality officials, Penamaluru police registered a case and arrested both Rama Devi and the Sanitary Inspector. Gannavaram Deputy Superintendent of Police K. Jaya Krishna informed The Hindu that both accused were arrested on Tuesday and produced in court, where they were remanded to judicial custody.",
