Quantities

The article says "более 900 кустов", stored as 900. The 15 hectares are the area of the orchard in which the cannabis stood, not an area of cannabis, so no hectares are stored.

Source discrepancies

The two outlets give the same figures. Kazinform attributes the briefing to an Interior Ministry representative, Shugyla Turlybek; Zakon.kz quotes a deputy head of the ministry's anti-drug department, Bakhytzhan Amirkhanov. This news item follows Zakon.kz.

Place

The district is not in the articles. Turgen lies in Enbekshikazakh District.

Dating

Zakon.kz is stamped 14:57, 16 October 2023 and Kazinform 12:47 the same day, and neither dates the aerial reconnaissance. The stored date is the date of the articles.
