Case data
Every number and detail the sources state, with the sources that state it.
The two accounts differ on the place: Hindustan reports the arrest near Ashiyana in Sector 56, while the police statement carried by Ground Zero News says near Rajiv Colony in Sector 58.
No remand hearing, charge sheet or court outcome was reported.
The same Hindustan report covers two men arrested in the Sector 59 industrial area with nine boxes of beer and Indian-made liquor, a separate case not counted here.
The police statement also reports a separate ganja case that day, the arrest of Rahul of Dabua with 310 grams, which is not part of this report.
Hindustan's article text gives no weight for the ganja; 551 grams appears in its headline and in the police statement.
