Neither account gives the weight or number of the marijuana, crack or cocaine portions, so no cannabis quantity is recorded.
The Paralelo 29 headline describes the men as 'denunciados' (charged), but both accounts describe an arrest in flagrante recorded at the police station and report no prosecutor's charge.
No court hearing, conviction or sentence is reported.
Both accounts appear to reproduce the police station's version; no independent witness or defence account was found.
The only photo identified shows the seized items, not the men or the vehicle.
