MANILA (Philippine Daily Inquirer/Asia News Network): The Dargani siblings, executives of Pharmally Pharmaceutical Corp that cornered alleged anomalous government deals to supply the medical needs of healthcare workers during the pandemic, have hired four lawyers to defend them in the investigation of the Senate, which had ordered their arrest.

An INQUIRER.net source said that in a letter addressed to the Senate Blue Ribbon committee, siblings Mohit and Twinkle Dargani have identified their counsel as Roy Kapunan, Demetri Felix, and Daryl Ritchie Valles. The fourth counsel is yet to be named by the siblings, the source said.
