SPD Director Brig. Gen. Jimili Macaraeg identified the suspects as Kennedy Valan, 25, and Maynard Delos Santos, 25, both of Paranaque City.
Macaraeg said the suspects were arrested at about 8:55 p.m. at 3299 Kabesang Cillo, Barangay Tambo, Paranaque City.

Macaraeg said the suspects are now detained at the SPD custodial facility and charged for illegal possession of drugs.
