The two people who were caught on CCTV using the credit cards of a missing business couple in Taguig have surrendered to the police. According to the CIDG-NCR, the suspects came forward voluntarily after being identified by authorities in Recto, Manila.
The suspects were caught on video buying cellphones at malls in Quezon City and Cavite using Henry Pantollana's credit card. The male suspect also allegedly withdrew money using the same card.
