  "account": "LAHORE: On Thursday, a farmhouse worker was tragically killed by a pet lioness at a farmhouse in the Kahna area. The victim, 19-year-old Talha, was attacked while the lioness was allegedly out of control. Two individuals have been arrested in connection with the incident: farmhouse owner Fayyaz and TikToker Nauman. According to the deputy inspector general (DIG) of police, the TikTok influencer had arrived at the farmhouse to produce a video when the lioness went astray and inflicted fatal injuries on the farmhand. The victim was transported to a private hospital, but he succumbed to his injuries. Police investigations initially suggested the incident might have been misrepresented as a dog attack; however, a thorough inquiry confirmed the lioness as the perpetrator. The wild animal was subsequently seized by the wildlife department, while the deceased's body was transferred to a morgue for an autopsy. Charges have been filed against the two suspects. Authorities are also probing whether the farmhouse had the necessary permit to house the lioness and if proper safety measures were in place. DIG Operations Faisal Kamran emphasized that any attempts to conceal the truth and overlook potential negligence would be meticulously investigated. He stressed that human life should never be compromised for the sake of entertainment or personal gain, asserting that creating TikTok videos should never supersede the value of human life.",
