Pamela Ling case: Police record statements from 12 witnesses
KUALA LUMPUR: Police have recorded statements from 12 witnesses over the disappearance of Pamela Ling Yueh, who is believed to have been abducted while heading to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) office in Putrajaya on April 9.
Kuala Lumpur police chief Datuk Rusdi Mohd Isa said those interviewed included family members, MACC officers and the victim's lawyer to assist in the investigation.
'So far, there are no leads or developments regarding her whereabouts,' he said briefly when contacted today.
Ling, 42, was reported missing while en route to the MACC office to provide a statement related to an ongoing investigation. Police received a report on her disappearance at 3.02 pm on the same day.
Her brother, Simon Ling Wan Siong, said Pamela had sent a WhatsApp message to her lawyer at 1.57 pm, informing that she was on her way to the MACC office and expected to arrive at 2.08 pm via an e-hailing service.
Despite efforts by her family and lawyer to contact her after 2 pm, phone calls went unanswered and WhatsApp messages went undelivered.
Grab Malaysia has also confirmed that the ride was marked as completed, but no further information has been obtained.
Rusdi had earlier said that no ransom demand had been received in connection with the case, which is being investigated under Section 365 of the Penal Code for abduction.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Simon Ling at 012-8866799 or the victim's father, Ling Kie Yii, at 012-8867979.

Report on alleged sukuk fund misappropriation linked to Klang Valley highway project ready in two months, says MACC chief
BANGI, June 12 — The investigation report on the alleged misappropriation of sukuk funds meant for the construction of a highway in the Klang Valley is expected to be completed within the next one to two months, according to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC). MACC chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki said the probe is progressing well and statements have been recorded from 53 witnesses so far. He added that more witnesses are expected to be called soon to assist in completing the investigation. 'This case will take about one or two months to complete as there are many aspects to examine and documents to analyse, including financial statements,' he said. He was speaking at a press conference after the 2nd Convocation Ceremony of the MACC's Certified Law Enforcement Programme here today. Azam said the recording of a statement from a person with the title 'Tan Sri' resumed today after a six-hour session was conducted at the individual's residence yesterday. Earlier, media reports stated that the MACC had seized various assets, including handbags, jewellery, luxury vehicles, watches, cash and high-end properties, collectively estimated at RM32 million, believed to belong to a highway concessionaire bearing the 'Tan Sri' title. In a separate case, Azam clarified that the statement from renowned fashion designer Datuk Jovian Mandagie was recorded yesterday in Jakarta, not Bali, as previously reported. It was earlier reported that the MACC investigation team would be in Jakarta for two days to record the statement of the 39-year-old designer, who is Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob's former son-in-law, in connection with an investigation into asset ownership involving the former prime minister. Ismail Sabri had been called in multiple times to the MACC headquarters to assist in investigations related to corruption and money laundering involving expenditures and funding for the promotion and publicity of the 'Keluarga Malaysia' programme during his tenure as prime minister from August 2021 to November 2022. — Bernama
