bdnews24's article is stamped 15 October 2026, 8:48 am Dhaka time. It says the man "was detained at the Green Channel in the ground-floor arrivals hall on Wednesday afternoon, the DNC said in a statement on Wednesday night". Wednesday was 14 October, which is the stored date.

Quantities

The article's headline says "4kg of Kush" and its first sentence says "4.28kg of kush". The summary uses the figure in the text.

Attribution

The three-country ring, the attempt "to create a new market in Bangladesh for Kush" and the plan for the man to "return to India through the Benapole land port" are the DNC's account, given in its statement and after what the article calls the man's "initial interrogation". The summary attributes them to the DNC. The route from Bangkok is the flight he arrived on, as the article states.

The pin is Wikidata's point for Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (Q30603), rounded to two decimals, the same point as the earlier airport item of 24 July (24 July).
