KLIA shooting: Cops to seek remand order tomorrow against suspect

Police will be seeking a remand order on the suspect who fired shots at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) Terminal 1 Arrival Hall early yesterday morning, at the Kota Bharu Magistrate's Court tomorrow.

Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department director Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain said the police are currently questioning and gathering information on the suspect.

"Today, we will first process the suspect we arrested earlier, and he is in good health.

"After the police have gathered all the information on the suspect, we will hold a press conference at 9am tomorrow here (Kelantan police contingent headquarters)," he said.

Shuhaily said this when approached by reporters at the Kelantan police contingent headquarters compound today after receiving a briefing on the case.

Earlier today, Inspector-General of Police Razarudin Husain confirmed that the suspect had been arrested at around 3pm.

In the 1.20am incident yesterday, a man fired two shots at his wife at the entrance of the arrival hall but missed, and one shot hit her bodyguard in the abdomen instead.

The bodyguard was admitted to hospital and is reported to be in stable condition.

Police had earlier said that they were looking for Hafizul Harawi, 38, to assist in the investigation into the case.
