They were released unconditionally, Johor police chief M. Kumar said.
FMT reported that the 22-year-old man and a 21-year-old woman were arrested to aid in the murder investigation but were released on orders from the Attorney-General's Chambers.

Radin hacked a policeman to death before shooting another officer in the head. A third policeman is recovering from a gunshot wound.
Radin was shot dead in the incident, which occurred about 2.45am on Friday, in what is believed to be a lone wolf attack.
