Hafizul, 38, was handed a further five-day extension on his remand period by Magistrate Ahmad Syafiq Aizat Nazri, Sinar Harian reported.

The extension was to help investigations under Section 8 of the Firearms (Increased Penalties) Act 1971 and Section 8(a) of the Arms Act 1960.

He is suspected of firing two shots at travel agency owner Farah at 1.20am on April 14 while she was awaiting the return of her clients from the umrah.
