Two held with 10 kg of ganja on a bus at a Pubail checkpoint

Open questions the AI reported

• The two accounts are near-identical Bengali texts published minutes apart, so they may reproduce one report from a Pubail correspondent rather than independent reporting.
• The article says only that a first information report was filed and the men were handed to Pubail police for legal action; no specific offence, formal charge, bail status or court outcome was reported.
• The ganja's 300,000-taka value is a police estimate of illegal market price, and no laboratory confirmation of the substance was reported.
• The account that the load came from Bhairab towards Gazipur Chowrasta rests on the first information report and could not be verified separately.
• The page photo is credited only as 'Photo: correspondent' with no caption saying what it shows, so the media link is given without confirming its content.
• Several details of the search, including the bus operator and registration, the hiding place in the luggage box, the split of the ganja between the two men and the seizure of two mobile phones, appear in the submitted Bengali article but their quotations could not be confirmed in this capture, so they are not recorded as sourced facts.
• Left out, as its quotation was not found in Daily Amar Sangbad: A second Bengali report from Pubail gives the same account of the checkpoint in front of Khokon Filling Station in Khilgaon, Pubail, and of the bus search.
