The accounts give no hour for the stop, only the afternoon of Wednesday 4 November 2026.
The cocaine (66.07 g of escama) is not counted as cannabis; the 'almost 4 kg' in the headline is a combined drug total, while the cannabis weights add up to about 3.60 kg.
The eight units of pressed marijuana and one portion of cannabis flower found in the car have no stated weight and are not counted separately from the final totals.
Dry (368.82 g) is recorded as a concentrate (oil) and the pressed material as hashish; the sources give no THC content and do not say which of the seized marijuana was hashish-type.
The man is not named and no charge sheet, custody hearing or court outcome is reported.
Both outlets publish very similar text, probably from the same military police statement, so they are not independent reporting.
