The amount is reported only as nearly 40 grams, not an exact laboratory weight, so 0.04 kg records the stated amount
The five-month term is a previously imposed penalty being enforced, not a new sentence for this possession case, so no prison figure is recorded for it
The same article also describes a separate June 2026 theft of 90 shoes worth nearly 12,500 zloty, a different event left out here
Only the detention date of 2 November 2026 is given; 3 November 2026 is the publication date recorded on both sources
No court outcome for the new possession charge was reported beyond the possible penalty of up to three years

The submitted page's only listed image is captioned as a generic police car and is not shown to depict this seizure, so no media entry is added.
