No weight was published for the cannabis, described only as a small quantity, so no kilograms or value can be recorded.
The source names only a local community of the Municipality of Sikyona, not the village, so the coordinates are those of the municipality centre and precision is district.
The man is identified only by his age and Greek nationality; no name or other identifier was published.
No charge sheet, custody decision or court outcome was reported; the Sikyona police station's preliminary investigation was still under way.
Both opened articles restate the same police announcement, so they are not independent accounts.
The picture published with the Hmerisia Korinthou page is captioned only as an archive photo from the internet, so it is not listed as media; the KorinthosTV picture carries no caption or credit.
The submitted headline mentions arrests in the plural, but the report describes only this one arrest, which is the only one recorded here.
