  "account": "The Neradigonda police have apprehended six members of an inter-State gang accused of attempting to mow down toll plaza staff after they attempted to stop their speeding vehicles on September 1. The six accused - Md. Shafi Mudassir, Firdous Baig, Hyder Ali, Bheemrao Sevatkar, Sandeep Vittal, and Gopal Singh Shekhawat - were arrested following a series of vehicle checks. The gang allegedly deployed a car as a pilot vehicle ahead of a container lorry to evade police checks along highways while smuggling 47 cattle, including 24 bulls and 23 cows, from multiple states. Three of the cattle were found dead in the container lorry. The gang's operation is believed to be part of a larger organised cattle smuggling racket.",
