[sumo] Wakanoho Caught with Marijuana

Nonjudgmentally, just out of curiousity, how might a rikishi of 
Wakanoho's stature obtain the alleged substance, and how might the same 
rikishi escape notice whilst using the alleged substance?  Furthermore, 
would Wakanoho himself be carrying his own wallet, or would that be the 
responsibility of his tsukebito?

A capable lawyer may be able to have such a case dismissed, and the 
elapsed time may give any retained residues to exit the body.

Chalk another one up to the Kyokai's foresight, and their wise decision 
to postpone drug testing...
