Defimedia published the article on 28 October 2026. The vessel was searched on 23 October, which is the stored date. The article says the vessel anchored in Mauritius "dans la nuit du 19 au 20 octobre", and gives no dates for the two alleged deliveries.

Quantities

"Un peu plus d'une tonne" is the article's total for two alleged deliveries ("deux livraisons présumées"), not a seizure. The article says no cannabis was found on the vessel itself. The evidence it describes is photographs of bags suspected of holding cannabis and a separate seizure of just under one kilogram, made "en fin de semaine dernière" with no place given. The summary gives the tonne as alleged and no weight is stored.

Place

The article places the search "au large de Baie-du-Tombeau" and names no district, so no district is stored. Because the vessel was at sea, no map pin is placed.

Hedging

The article words the case throughout as presumed ("présumé", "aurait", "suspectés"). The charge is provisional. The article does not name the vessel; another Mauritian outlet has given it a name that this article does not.
