  "account": "Two robbers, Krishna and Sai, fatally shot a man during an altercation at the Chevella bus stand on Wednesday night. The deceased, whose identity remains unknown, had apparently alighted from a city bus and remained at the bus stand after services concluded for the evening. The robbers, both daily wage laborers, were high on alcohol and engaged in a heated argument with the victim. According to police, the suspects and the deceased were seen arguing for an hour via CCTV before the confrontation turned deadly. Using an old wooden chair, the suspects ultimately killed the man before fleeing with a smartphone. The device had already been stolen earlier by the deceased, who was reportedly a watchman residing in Chevella. Police suspect the deceased had acquired the phone before arriving at the bus stand, though this has yet to be confirmed. Police are working to identify the deceased and have circulated his photograph to aid in this process. Further investigation is ongoing.",
