No figure for any marijuana or other cannabis product was published in this search; the seized 47 bags are described as similar to crystal, so no cannabis quantity is recorded.
The page gives no separate date for the search; 9 November 2026 is its publication date and stands in as the incident date.
The substances are described only as having characteristics similar to crystal, with no laboratory confirmation reported.
No charges or court ruling were reported; the four remained with the Public Ministry for investigation.
Some outlets reproduce the prosecutor's statement; only the N+ page and two Puebla outlets were opened, so they are not independent of one another.
The headline photo is credited to the FGE Puebla account on X but carries no confirmed caption beyond a reference to almost 50 crystal doses, so it is listed only as a link.
