Sakarya provincial gendarmerie teams detained four suspects aged 22 to 28, identified only as E.E., Y.D., T.C. and T.T., after searching their vehicle and surrounding land in the Paşalar neighbourhood of Pamukova district.[1] Eleven separate operations over the previous week targeted unlawful cannabis cultivation and drug use across the Akyazı, Hendek, Geyve, Karasu and Pamukova districts.[1] Across all the reported Sakarya operations, 13 people were detained.[1]
The Paşalar search seized 300 grams of kubar esrar alongside 2 kg of bonzai, a synthetic cannabinoid that is excluded from the cannabis total.[1] The week-long operations seized 530 grams of kubar esrar and 782 cannabis roots, along with three unlicensed hunting rifles and one synthetic pill.[1] The report gives the combined cannabis total as 830 grams of esrar.[1] The vehicle found to have been used in the Paşalar incident was banned from traffic and given a 3,526-lira penalty.[1]
The operations were carried out by Sakarya İl Jandarma Komutanlığı, the provincial gendarmerie command, following intelligence work, with the Paşalar operation described as targeting synthetic cannabinoid trade.[1] The report uses kubar esrar for the seized cannabis and kök kenevir for the cannabis plants.[1]
