Looks like they DID find something in Wakanoho's private
apartment/condominium. That had to be offsite, if it was a condo.

Other wrestlers unaware of pot use
Kyodo News
Wrestlers at the Magaki sumo stable have told police they were not aware
that stablemate Wakanoho smoked marijuana as alleged by police, investigative
sources said Wednesday.
The Russian wrestler, whose real name is Gagloev Soslan Aleksandrovich, was
arrested Monday for possession of cannabis.
Police are investigating when and why the 20-year-old wrestler started
smoking marijuana, and have questioned several wrestlers from the same stable, the
sources said.
Police seized a cannabis pipe from the stable as well as from Wakanoho's
condominium, stirring speculation that he may have smoked marijuana at the
stable as well.
The Japan Sumo Association indicated Tuesday it will dismiss Wakanoho over
the allegation. He would be the first active wrestler to be dismissed in
sumo's long history if the measure is adopted at the association's emergency
executive committee meeting Thursday.
Nobody puts Asashoryu in the corner.
