After putting out the fire, the witness discovered human remains and immediately notified the police, also informing them about the two individuals he had seen inside the house.
Responding officers, who were already nearby, quickly apprehended the suspects. Authorities noted that both had ashes and charcoal residue on their hands.
Police also recovered suspected illegal drugs and drug paraphernalia from the suspects. Drug tests later confirmed both individuals were positive for substance use.
The suspects, currently detained at the Subic Municipal Police Station, have undergone inquest proceedings for murder and for violating the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.
