Case data
Every number and detail the sources state, with the sources that state it.
Only one opened source reports the detention and seizure; no separate agency statement or second outlet could be opened for this event.
The article gives no separate date for the vehicle search, which is described as following the arrest on 4 June 2014.
The source does not say whether Ismoilkhon Ibronov, the Opel Astra's owner, was detained or charged, and no charges, custody ruling or court outcome were reported.
The hashish is given only as more than 12 kg; no precise weight or drug value was published.
The 4 kg of raw opium found on the detainee is excluded from the cannabis figure, and the article's combined headline "over 14 kg" is not attributed to hashish alone.
The article places the district in southern Tajikistan and does not name the Khatlon region or a specific town within Hamadoni district.
