The Bengali phrase for the raid time means the night following Friday 13 November 2026 at 1:30 a.m.; 14 November 2026 is therefore used as the incident date.
Only the cannabis weight is recorded in figures; the 190 yaba tablets are non-cannabis and are excluded from cannabis quantities.
No weight for the yaba, no value estimate, and no court outcome beyond the filing of the case was reported.
Only one accessible outlet account of this event was found; the page photo is a collected image whose caption only repeats the headline.
