  "account": "In Hulu Terengganu, two traffic policemen were injured when their patrol car overturned while attempting to evade a group of monkeys. The incident occurred near Kampung Kepah around 4:30pm. District police chief Sharudin Abdul Wahab stated that the patrol car swerved to the right to avoid the monkeys that suddenly appeared on the road. The road was wet due to recent rain, and the vehicle skidded and overturned multiple times. The patrol car was driven by lance corporal Amirul Hafiz Ahmad, 26, and corporal Khairil Azlan Abdul Latif, 44, who were en route to Kuala Berang for routine enforcement duties. Amirul sustained a fractured left arm, while Khairil reportedly injured his jaw during the mishap.",
