The Himalayan Times, in an article published on 12 October 2026, says the sacks were found "around 2am on Monday". The stored date, 12 October 2026, is worked out from that.
Quantities
The Himalayan Times reports three seizures in two articles. The article of 13 October 2026 states "a combined 1,209.84 kg" for the three, and the headline of 12 October, "Over 1,050 kg", adds this seizure to the one at Katari. This news item covers the 940.44 kg found at Chargare on its own.

The two articles cover three seizures by Udayapur police, each with its own news item: Saguri Bridge, Katari (11 October); Belaka (12 October).
Place
The article is datelined Gaighat, the district headquarters, and places the seizure at Chargare in Chaudandigadhi-1 on the Ranitaar-Beltar road. Chargare has no point of its own in the gazetteers used. The pin is Wikidata's point for Chaudandigadhi municipality (Q31767035), rounded to two decimals, and marks the municipality, not the road.
