  "account": "A scuffle erupted at Hassan Prison on Friday, resulting in injuries to an undertrial prisoner and a jail staff member. The incident occurred around 5 p.m when two undertrials, Mohan Kumar and Rangaswamy, argued over the priority to use the telephone. Jail staff members Parashurama H. and Viresh Sangamad intervened to maintain order. However, Mohan Kumar's associates joined the fight, attacking Rangaswamy and Viresh Sangamad. The situation stabilized with the help of other staff members. Mohan Kumar and Viresh Sangamad were taken to a government hospital for treatment. The police filed a complaint against 11 undertrials, based on the testimony of Viresh Sangamad, who alleged that they assaulted the staff member.",
