Open questions the AI reported
The full article is behind a paywall and the opened page did not include its sentencing paragraphs, so the five-year term rests on the article's title rather than a checkable body passage.
The courier's penalty is not stated in the opened text, so no sentence is recorded for her.
The tracker's weight counts only the 675 g of cannabis resin from the car; no cannabis weight from the Limerzel house search is given in the opened text, and any cocaine or heroin in the network is not included.
The source does not say how many people were detained or what charges each defendant faced.
The page photo is captioned as an illustration and is not established to show this seizure.
Only one source for this event was found; attempts to open a second Le Télégramme account of the case were blocked.
The accounts differ on the house search: Le Télégramme says about 9 kg of resin and €4,450 in cash, while the local outlets say nearly 10 kg and more than €5,000; the larger, broader figures are recorded in the details.
The road-check amount is given as 675 g of resin in labelled bags by Le Télégramme and as about 700 g of cannabis resin by the local outlets; both are kept as reported.
The house search also found cocaine and heroin and three alarm pistols, which are not cannabis and are not counted in the cannabis figures.
The 5,000 € cash figure is stated as 'more than 5 000 euros'; the exact confiscated amount is not given.
No appeal is reported, so the sentences are recorded as first-instance outcomes.
