KUALA LUMPUR - Police have yet to uncover any new leads in the disappearance of Datin Seri Pamela Ling Yueh, despite over three months of ongoing investigation.
Acting Kuala Lumpur police chief Datuk Mohamed Usuf Jan Mohamad said so far, police have recorded statements from 48 witnesses, including individuals from both within and outside the country, but the efforts have not led to any significant breakthroughs.
"The investigation is still ongoing, but so far, we have very few clues that could help us solve this case. Even the photofit obtained has not been helpful," he said.
Usuf made the statement during a press conference after attending the Kuala Lumpur Police Chief Handover Ceremony at the Kuala Lumpur Police Contingent Headquarters on Friday.
Ling, 42, was reported missing on April 9 while on her way to provide a statement to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) in Putrajaya. Pamela Ling was reported missing on April 9 while on her way to give a statement to the MACC in Putrajaya.
She was believed to have taken an e-hailing vehicle between 1.30pm and 2.10pm.
Previously, police confirmed that their investigation included a review of her last known location, checks on closed circuit television footage and information from the e-hailing service used.
In a statement, the MACC confirmed that Ling had been scheduled to appear at their headquarters on that date but failed to show up.
Her lawyer also lodged a police report on the same day.
According to the statement, the responsibility to locate Ling now falls under the jurisdiction of the police.
The public has been advised not to speculate and allow the authorities to carry out a thorough investigation on the matter.
