A 51-year-old former tokhang surrenderee and his cohorts were arrested once again by the Makati City Police Station Drug Enforcement Unit and the Olympia Police Sub-station for possession of illegal drugs and other drug paraphernalia, the Southern Police District (SPD) reported.
Police identified the suspects as "Egay," 51; "RJ," 35; and "Ejay," 25. Egay was previously arrested in 2016 during the conduct of the Duterte administration's oplan tokhang.
Based on the police report, the suspects were arrested in Barangay Tejeros, Makati City during the joint buy-bust operation by the police.
They yielded various drug paraphernalia which included sachets of shabu, marijuana fruiting tops (kush), and disposable vapes containing marijuana/cannabis oil worth over P120,000.
"The seized pieces of evidence were turned over to the Southern Police District Forensic Unit for chemical analysis while the arrested suspects will face charges for violations of Sections 5, 11, and 12 of Article II of Republic Act 9165 (Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002)," the PD said.
