The man was collecting the results of a medical test, at a private hospital in Kota Baru.

Hafizul Harawi has been identified as the suspect in a murder attempt at Kuala Lumpur International Airport on April 14 that left a bodyguard severely injured.

According to Federal CID director Commissioner Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain, it was a joint effort by CID elements from Selangor, Kelantan and Bukit Aman which led to his capture.“He had been in and out of Malaysia on numerous occasions prior to his arrest. Just last week, he came back from Saudi Arabia and landed in Bangkok. He then made his way to Kota Baru from there,” he said at the Kelantan police headquarters on April 16.

“We will be calling several witnesses to come back to tidy up our investigations,” he said, adding that Hafizul Harawi, who is from Selangor, had previously studied at a religious school in Repek in Pasir Mas, Kelantan, and had memorised the Quran.
