Police Chief Arief Batubara stated the attack involved two gunmen. Both suspects arrived at the villa on a scooter around midnight. One wore an orange jacket with a dark helmet, while the other had a dark green jacket, black mask, and dark helmet.
Witnesses, including the victims’ wives and another foreign tourist, said both attackers spoke English with a strong Australian accent.
The villa had five guests across three rooms at the time, reported AP News.
Radmanovic’s wife, Gourdeas Jazmyn, 30, told investigators she was woken by her husband’s screams. She hid under a blanket as gunfire erupted. After the shooting, she found her husband dead in the bathroom and Ghanim bleeding heavily.

Ghanim was reportedly shot seven times.
Another witness, Daniela, staying in a separate room, heard an explosion and saw a man in a green jacket attempting to enter her room before she fled the villa.
