“We moved in on them and recovered drugs.
“That is why five of them were arrested: three males and two females.
“When their house was searched we found in their possession molly and cannabis.
“The investigation is still ongoing but we have to trace where they are getting these substances from.”
In a video that has since gone viral on social media, the music stars were seen been harassed and manhandled by the men of the agency.
