KOTA BHARU (April 15): Police will be seeking a remand order on a suspect, who fired shots at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) Terminal 1 arrival hall early on Sunday morning, in the Kota Bharu Magistrate's Court on Tuesday.

"Today (Monday), 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 (at the Kelantan police contingent headquarters)," he said.
He said this when approached by reporters at the headquarters compound on Monday after receiving a briefing on the case.
