On 29 October 2026, shortly before 9 p.m., officers of the Rhodes Crime
Prosecution and Detection Subdivision stopped a 50-year-old man in Rhodes and
arrested him after a check.[1] Prosecutors brought a felony charge of drug
trafficking against the 50-year-old and referred him to an investigating judge.[1] Before the Rhodes investigating judge, the man denied the charge as
attributed to him.[1] With the agreement of the Rhodes first-instance
prosecutor, he was then released with restrictive conditions.[1] The
conditions ban him from leaving the country and require him to appear once
during the first five days of each month at his local police station.[1]
Police seized all the items found, 16.5 grams of cannabis in total, and filed a
case against him that was referred to the competent authority.[1]

- The article gives no separate date for the examination before the investigating judge and release; 3 November 2026 is its publication date and is used as the incident date.
- The seized 160 euros are reported as cash found on the man, not as an official drug valuation, so no fine or value figure is recorded.
- The Rodiaki lead image is dated 2025 and the other page images have empty captions or alt text, so no photo could be verified as showing this event and no media entry is added.
- No court outcome beyond the restrictive conditions was reported.
- Left out, as its quotation was not found in Top FM 102.4: During the street check, officers found 9.9 grams of unprocessed cannabis on him along with 160 euros in cash.
