According to police, the villa had only three rooms occupied with a total of five guests when the shooting happened. The two victims' wives were also there and another foreign tourist, Batubara said.
Radmanovic was shot in a bathroom, where police found 17 bullet casings and two intact bullets.
At least three witnesses at the villa told investigators that two Australian gunmen, one wearing an orange jacket with a dark helmet and another wearing a dark green jacket, a black mask and a dark helmet, arrived on a scooter at the villa around midnight.

Suspect in Minnesota lawmaker Melissa Hortman's shooting texted friend he ‘might be dead soon'
The suspect in the deadly shooting of a Minnesota state lawmaker and wounding of another had links to evangelical ministries and said he was a security expert with experience in the Gaza Strip and Africa, according to his online postings and public records. A manhunt was under way on Saturday for Vance Luther Boelter, 57, who police said is a suspect in the killing of Democratic Minnesota state legislator Melissa Hortman and her husband, and the shooting of state Senator John Hoffman and his wife. Police said the suspect had been seen earlier on Saturday wearing a light coloured cowboy hat, a dark coloured long-sleeved collared shirt or coat with a dark bag. The FBI offered a reward of up to US$50,000 for information that could lead to his arrest. David Carlson, 59, said that he has been sharing a house in Minneapolis with Boelter for a little more than a year and last saw him on Friday night. Then, about 6am on Saturday, he received a text from Boelter. 'He said that he might be dead soon,' said Carlson, who called police. Carlson, who has known Boelter since fourth grade, said Boelter worked for an eye donation centre and stayed at the house because it was close to his job. Carlson said he feels betrayed by Boelter and heartbroken for the victims, adding: 'His family has got to suffer through this.'
