The suspect is believed to an army officer but Motube declined to confirm this.

“I cannot say that for now, all I can say is we have even looked for him at his work place, the police intelligence is on the ground.” Motube said the woman was recovering at Princess Marina Hospital. She suffered gun shot wounds on her upper body. Some witnesses, who preferred anonymity, said the assailant fired two shots.
