Case data
Every number and detail the sources state, with the sources that state it.
The reports give no separate dates for the farm destruction or the sibling interceptions within September 2025, so 3 October is the briefing date.
The 500 blocks stopped in Lamurde and the 40 blocks found in Mubi are reported as block counts with no weights, and their share of the 366.808 kg monthly cannabis total is unclear.
No charges, court dates or convictions for the arrested suspects were reported.
The 58-suspect and vehicle totals cover all drugs seized in the month, not cannabis alone.
The whole account rests on the command's briefing as carried by two outlets.
