Case data
Every number and detail the sources state, with the sources that state it.
The reports give no account of where the 50 kilograms came from, who was to receive it or whether either man had a prior record.
The 50 kilograms is described only as ganja; no weighing procedure or laboratory confirmation was reported.
The Narcotics Control Act 2018 sections are given by number only; the reports do not state the penalty the charges carry or whether a charge count was recorded beyond the case filing.
No detention order, bail decision or court outcome was reported.
The two accounts carry the same text and the same image, so there is only one underlying report and no independent confirmation of the details.
The single image published on both pages is captioned only with the headline and does not show what it depicts, so it is not listed as media.
East Keshabpur village was not precisely geolocated; the map uses the Bijaynagar upazila centre.
