A 42-year-old man was sentenced to a suspended three-year prison term by the Fukuoka District Court for his central role in transporting over 6 kg of marijuana from Tsushima City to Hakata Port. The judge stated that the large quantity suggested organized crime involvement but noted there was no evidence of personal financial gain. An accomplice received a similar sentence a day earlier.
