The Interior Ministry reported a seizure in the Khazar district of Baku, as relayed by Report.az. Police say they found 45 kg 210 g of marijuana during a search of a car driven by a 53-year-old man.
The report says the man stated he had obtained the drugs to deliver to various addresses. A criminal case has been opened and a court ordered pre-trial detention. Investigators say the inquiry is continuing. The account rests on the ministry's statement.
Why it matters: The report describes pre-trial detention at an early stage. The account comes from the Interior Ministry, and the report does not give a defence view.
