Indonesian police have arrested two people over the shooting of two Australians in Bali that killed Melbourne man Zivan Radmanovic.
Mr Radmanovic, 32, was shot dead at a villa at the Badung Regency north of Kuta on Saturday. His wife was in the villa but not physically injured.
A second Melbourne man Sanar Ghanim, 34, was also shot during the attack. An image shows Mr Ghanim being tended to by paramedics while his feet and face are covered in blood.
Media organisation Nusa Bali reported one of the alleged offenders was arrested in Jakarta, while another person was captured abroad and was being taken to the Indonesian capital.
Indonesian National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo held a press conference in Bali on Tuesday at the Jembrana Police Headquarters.
“Regarding the shooting involving Australian citizens, I have received a report from the Bali Police Chief. One suspect has been secured in Jakarta, and another is on the way from overseas,” the police chief told media.
“A more detailed statement will be released by Bali Police.
“What I can say for now is that this case was solved through co-operation between our Criminal Investigation Agency (Bareskrim), Immigration, and the Australian Federal Police (AFP),” he added.
General Sigit did not release any information about identity of the alleged shooters, but told media Bali Regional Police would provide more detailed information.
It was reported there were two alleged offenders who might be Australian and the gunmen used firearms during the attack.
It was not clear what the motive was behind the attack which is being investigated by authorities.
Bali Regional Police Chief Daniel Adityajaya said his department would provide an update later.
“Once the evidence and documentation are complete, Bali Police will issue an official statement to the public and media,” he said.
