Police face scrutiny over staged abduction theory in Pamela Ling case
Lawyer Sangeet Kaur Deo said a full month has passed with no real answers and no sense of urgency in Pamela Ling's disappearance. PETALING JAYA : Lawyer Sangeet Kaur Deo today asked if the police are pursuing a theory that Pamela Ling might have staged her own abduction. Ling went missing on April 9 while on her way to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission's headquarters in Putrajaya to give a statement. The e-hailing driver who drove Ling said that her abductors – who intercepted his car – were wearing police outfits. Sangeet, who is acting for Ling's family, questioned whether Kuala Lumpur police chief Rusdi Isa's suggestion that Ling may have staged her own disappearance was due to a CCTV recording that showed her entering her abductors' vehicle willingly. The lawyer said Ling's compliance with her abductors was to be expected if she indeed believed that they were police officers. The police should not misrepresent her compliance – believing it to be lawful authority – as complicity, Sangeet said in a statement. 'If this (staged abduction) is the theory being pursued, it is hoped that there are compelling reasons for advancing it. 'Otherwise, it risks being nothing more than a distraction from a clear lack of progress in investigations.' At a press conference today, Rusdi expressed confidence that Ling was still alive and did not rule out the possibility that she had staged her own abduction. He noted that CCTV footage showed no indication of a struggle, with Ling seemingly cooperating when she was asked to leave the e-hailing vehicle and get into one of the suspects' cars. He said eight suspects were believed to be involved in the abduction but CCTV footage showed that only two of them were wearing police vests during Ling's abduction. Rusdi also confirmed that police had not conducted any operations at the time of the incident, making it highly possible that Ling's abductors had worn the vests to impersonate policemen. He added that three of the vehicles used in the abduction had cloned number plates. In her statement, Sangeet said while the police previously said there were no new leads in Ling's case, Rusdi today said 'new leads are being found every day' – but they could not be disclosed. 'Today, the police gave what they called an 'update'. In truth, there is nothing new. 'We support the need for a thorough investigation, but what the public is seeing now increasingly resembles deflection rather than direction. 'A full month has passed with no real answers and no sense of urgency.' Yesterday, MACC said a probe was initiated into Ling and her husband, Sarawakian businessman Hah Tiing Siu – also known as Thomas Hah – in May last year for alleged graft and money laundering offences. After failing to comply with a MACC order to attend an interview, Ling was arrested in Singapore in January and extradited to Malaysia. She was then remanded from Jan 9 to 11 before being released on MACC bail. Sangeet previously said Ling had her statement recorded on nine separate occasions after being released from remand, an issue which a former MACC chief commissioner said raised concerns about the integrity and legality of the investigation.
