No weight, portion count or value was published for the marijuana, amphetamine or methamphetamine, so no cannabis weight is recorded.
The article gives only its publication date of 2 November 2026; the Friday, Saturday, Sunday and today timings are relative to it, so the publication date is used as the incident date for the latest arrest.
Four of the six detentions involved marijuana; the 20-year-old amphetamine case and the 39-year-old methamphetamine case had no reported cannabis component and are excluded from cannabis figures.
