In the 1.20 am incident, the man fired two shots at his wife at the entrance to the arrival hall but missed, and one of the shots hit her bodyguard.
Mohd Shuhaily said the wife had previously lodged two police reports against the suspect under Section 506 in 2016 and 2023.
"After the latest report under Section 506 was lodged in December last year, police arrested the suspect. We have submitted the investigation paper but there are certain instructions which need to be implemented. Following that incident, the suspect's wife hired bodyguards,” he told a press conference here.
