KUALA LUMPUR: Muhammad Nur Hadith, the personal bodyguard who was shot at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) Terminal 1 arrival hall on Sunday, is stable and will be under observation for about a week following a successful surgery.
His wife, Siti Noraida Hassan, 38, said the surgery on his intestines ended at 4.30pm and he would need to be under observation for about five to six days.
"He might need dialysis for some time for the injuries to his kidney. He also has some injuries to his spleen. Let's pray that it will recover.
"He is quite stable at this time. Please pray that my husband can fully recover," she said.
Nur Hadith underwent a major surgery at 12pm today.
This is his first major surgery after he was shot. He was put into a medically induced coma.
In the 1.20am incident, a man fired two shots at his wife at the entrance of the arrival hall but missed, with one of the shots hitting Nur Hadith.
The suspect fled in a car parked at level two of the Block C parking lot, but was detained by police yesterday in Kelantan.
Federal Criminal Investigation Department director Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain said police had identified the suspect as Hafizul Hawari, 38.
The suspect has been remanded for seven days.
