TWO suspects behind the death of a man who was arrested for being a “tambay” (loiterer) will face murder charges as five policemen from the precinct that placed him under its custody were relieved from their posts, Quezon City Police District Chief Joselito Esquivel said on Friday.

In a press briefing at Camp Karingal, Esquivel identified the suspects as Justin Mercado and Richard Bautista, fellow detainees of Genesis “Tisoy” Argoncillo whom members of Novaliches Police Station 4 held for being shirtless and for allegedly loitering on the street.
