  "account": "A 28-year-old man accused of attempting to smuggle four tonnes of cocaine through Dunkirk has been arrested in Germany, according to Dutch media. The suspect, Jan G., is believed to have been targeted in a drugs feud that resulted in the death of a security guard and injuries to two police officers in Overasselt, Gelderland, three weeks ago. French customs officials discovered the cocaine, valued at €225 million, mixed in plastic waste within a container originating from Ghana. Dutch drugs cartel leader Jos Leijdekkers, known as \"Bolle Jos\" and Europol's most wanted fugitive, is linked to the shipment. Over 30 suspects, including individuals from various nationalities such as Dutch, French, Algerian, and Belgian, were apprehended following the incident on September 1. Local authorities have closed Jan G.'s farmhouse and ordered him to stay away from the village for three months to restore peace.",
