Australian man Sanar Ghanim injured in fatal Bali shooting has Melbourne underworld links
An Australian man has been killed and another wounded in a shooting at a tourist hotspot in Bali. The incident happened in the Badung region, a little over 10km north of Kuta. Zivan Radmanovic, aged 32 and with strong ties to Melbourne, has been identified as the man shot dead. Mr Radmanovic's wife was in the villa but not physically injured. A second Melbourne man, Sanar Ghanim, aged in his 30s, was also injured in the attack. Mr Ghanim has links to high-profile slain underworld figure Carl Williams and was jailed in 2015 for his involvement in a non-fatal shooting in Melbourne. Speaking to media, Badung Police chief Arif Batubara, said the 32-year-old died at the scene, while the second man was rushed to hospital for treatment. 'A shooting incident has happened. There are two victims, both Australian nationals,' he said. 'We cannot yet determine the motive for this shooting and also who the perpetrator is until our investigation is complete,' Mr Batubara said. On Saturday, the police chief said police were yet to make any arrests. A statement from a Bali Police spokesman, the ABC reports, details the incident. Mr Radmanovic's wife was woken just after midnight by her husband's screams, the official statement says. The woman had been covering her face with a blanket, but saw a man wearing a bright orange jacket and dark helmet. She told police she saw the man shoot her husband in the bathroom, before fleeing. Shortly after she heard more gunshots and Mr Ghanim screaming from his room. She ran out of a bedroom, found her husband on the floor and Mr Ghanim bleeding, the ABC reports. Witnesses reportedly saw a man on a scooter in a green 'online ride-hailing' jacket, dark helmet and a face mask or cover who said 'I can't start my bike' in a strong Australian accent. Mr Radmanovic died at the scene from gunshot wounds. Mr Ghanim was taken to BIMC Hospital in Kuta District. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said it was 'providing consular assistance to the family of an Australian who died in a shooting incident in Bali'. 'We send our deepest condolences to the family at this difficult time. 'DFAT stands ready to provide consular assistance to another Australian injured in the same incident.' Mr Ghanim has a child with the stepdaughter of slain Melbourne underworld kingpin Carl Williams.

Investigation underway after Australian man, 32, killed and another injured in a shooting in a villa in Bali
An Australian man has died while another has been injured in a shooting incident at a villa in Bali. Local police said the incident happened in a villa at Munggu in Bali's Badung Regency on Friday night local time. Both men are believed to have been shot in the incident, with the 32-year-old succumbing to his injuries at the scene while a 34-year-old Aussie man is receiving treatment in hospital. 'A shooting incident has happened. There are two victims, both Australian nationals,' Badung Police chief Arif Batubara said. 'We are now working on (an) investigation (to) find witnesses that may have seen the incident." No arrests have been made yet over the shooting. The incident comes after it emerged another Australian man had been arrested in Bali. The arrest was captured by the Radar Bali news service as it unfolded. He and his female passenger were reportedly stopped while riding a motorcyle as they were not wearing helmets. When he was inspected, police officers discovered a small bag containing what looked like a white substance. "'Ah, no, no, no, no,' the man said before pleading that it was just panadol. 'Try it, it's panadol. Panadol brother. Test it, it's panadol!' He later allegedly confessed the powder was cocaine. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade confirmed to it was aware an Australian had been detained in Bali. "We are in contact with local authorities and stand ready to provide consular assistance, to any Australian citizen, should they request it," a DFAT spokesperson said in a statement. It marks the third time an Australian has been detained in Bali in the last month. Australian man Puridas Robinson, a 40-year-old originally from Queensland was arrested at a Denpasar address on May 29 and has admitted to using cryptocurrency to purchase 120g of cannabis, according to the masthead. His arrest came after Indian man Harsh Nowlakha, 31, was allegedly caught by authorities attempting to smuggle cannabis into Bali via the island's international airport, The Daily Telegraph reported. Fellow Australian national Lamar Ahchee, was arrested in the Indonesian province in May for allegedly trying to smuggle cocaine into the country. Police have alleged Mr Ahchee aided in smuggling 1.8 kilograms of the drug into Bali. Mr Ahchee's lawyer has since claimed his client did not know the package he allegedly smuggled contained drugs.
