Aznel then instructed Khairul and Syafiq to move to the back of the station to assess the situation and locate\u00a0the attacker\u00a0Radin Luqman, who\u00a0allegedly\u00a0fired at them again.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cWe then ran back and regrouped behind the station chief\u2019s office before Aznel went out to seek assistance while Hasif, Syafiq and I moved to the front of the station near an armoured vehicle for cover,\u201d Khairul told the court, as quoted by Bernama.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Radin Luqman had allegedly fired shots at the three of them while they were taking cover.

The shot hit the attacker but he was still moving,\u201d Khairul said, as quoted by Bernama.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cI attempted to fire a second shot but my pistol jammed. After clearing it, I fired again and hit the attacker. I then saw him lying next to Syafiq in front of the left tyre of the armoured vehicle,\u201d he said, adding that Radin Luqman was dressed in dark clothing, wearing a mask and carrying a backpack.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Khairul said that assistance arrived at about 3.30am and at around 7am\u00a0on the same day, he was called to identify the two victims who were killed &#8211; Ahmad Azza and Syafiq &#8211; as well as the attacker.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Hasif, who was injured, was rushed to the hospital for treatment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The suspect was later identified as Radin Luqman, which led to the arrest of five of his family members.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>The New Straits Times (NST) reported that Khairul became visibly emotional when asked about the impact of the incident.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>\u201cI was traumatised and devastated.
