Police identified three suspects in Söğütlü Mahallesi, Iğdır, only as M.C.Ş.,
E.V. and M.S.B., born in 2007, 2008 and 2009.[1] Officers detained all three
after finding cannabis and methamphetamine in a chicken coop they assessed the
suspects were using to hide drugs for sale.[1]
Narcotics teams of the Iğdır Provincial Police Directorate carried out the
Söğütlü work under the Iğdır Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office.[1] On 25
October 2026 they ran inquiries and technical surveillance in the neighbourhood
aimed at drug trafficking.[1] In the coop they seized 1.37 grams of cannabis,
recorded as esrar, in one piece, and 15.38 grams of methamphetamine in five
pieces.[1]
After processing at the police station, the three were referred to the judicial
authorities on 26 October, and all three were remanded.[1] The inquiry
continues on drug-trafficking allegations, and the proceedings against the
suspects are still open.[1]

Open questions the AI reported
- Only PolitiKARS could be opened; no police or court statement was found to confirm the coop search.
- The same article describes a separate Iğdır and Ağrı methamphetamine shipment of 1,442 grams, with remands and two judicial-control releases and no reported cannabis; that case is left out.
- The article’s totals for the two inquiries do not match in every passage, including how many people were detained or remanded in the shipment file, so those shipment figures are not used here.
- Birth years are given, but not whether any of the three was under 18 on the day of the search.
- No street value, plant count or cultivated area was given, and the page’s lead image is captioned only with the methamphetamine headline, so it was not treated as a photo of this search.
