No weight was published for the 36 bars, 28 tablets or the hundreds of wraps, so no kilogram figure is recorded.
The article gives no count for the hundreds of wraps, so no plants or unit figure is recorded.
No charge filed against the man was reported; only the page tags name tráfico.
The cocaine packets and their quantity are excluded from cannabis figures because the article gives no separate cannabis weight or cocaine count.
The suspect was not named and no age, cash amount or drug valuation was published.
The page says only that the material and the man were sent to the Delegacia; no custody decision or court outcome was reported.
No second outlet or Military Police statement for this arrest could be opened; searches found only the same account and social media posts.
The page photo is credited only to Polícia Militar/Divulgação with a caption about the tip, so it is linked as an illustrative police picture rather than a confirmed photo of the seized drugs.
