The Office of Narcotics Control Board (ONCB) is working closely with the Food and Drugs Administration and Customs Department to find the source of diazepam -- an anti-anxiety medication that was detected in the fatal ketamine cocktail known on the streets as "k-nom pong".
At the same time, authorities are also looking into another ketamine concoction called "Talaysai", after a friend of a victim that had overdosed on k-nom pong told police they were warned that it is much stronger than k-nom pong.
