Source discrepancies
The two reports differ on the accused's past.
| Outlet | Statement about the accused's past |
|---|---|
| Pioneer Edge (cited) | "the accused had also been involved in drug trafficking earlier" |
| Amar Ujala | "आरोपी का पूर्व में भी आबकारी अधिनियम के तहत मामला दर्ज रहा है" (in English: a case under the Excise Act had been registered against the accused earlier) |
Both outlets attribute the statement to the police. This news item follows Pioneer Edge, the cited source, and gives earlier involvement in drug trafficking.
Quantities
Pioneer Edge gives the value as "worth around Rs 45 lakh" and Amar Ujala as "कीमत करीब 45 लाख रुपये" (in English: value about 45 lakh rupees). One lakh is 100,000, so this news item writes the value as about 4.5 million rupees.
Place
Pioneer Edge is datelined "PIONEER EDGE NEWS SERVICE /Dehradun". It names the force as "Pauri police" and the place as "near Awas Vikas Ground in Srinagar", without naming a district for Srinagar. Amar Ujala is datelined "संवाद न्यूज एजेंसी, श्रीनगर गढ़वाल" (in English: Samvad News Agency, Srinagar Garhwal). This news item gives Pauri Garhwal as the district and Srinagar as the locality.
