Police still investigating Ling's disappearance
THE police are still investigating the disappearance of Datin Seri Pamela Ling Yueh under Section 365 of the Penal Code for kidnapping or abduction with the intent to secretly and wrongfully confine an individual, says Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail. The Home Minister said the investigation paper is still being prepared together with several documents and it will be submitted to the deputy public prosecutor for further instructions. 'The police remain committed to investigating any reported cases of abduction or disappearance in accordance with standard operating procedures and existing legal provisions,' he said in reply to a question from Ram Karpal Singh (PH-Bukit Gelugor), who asked the ministry to reveal the status of the investigation into the case. Ram Karpal also wanted to know whether the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is being investigated as Ling was abducted on her way to the MACC office on April 9. The Home Minister said that the police consistently cooperate with other enforcement agencies, including the MACC, when required. On April 9 this year, Ling was summoned to the MACC headquarters in Putrajaya to assist an investigation under the MACC Act 2009 and Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001. However, she never arrived. Her lawyer lodged a police report on her disappearance the same day. CCTV footage showed her being abducted by several men. So far, no ransom demand has been received.

Pamela Ling abduction: More info given, yet no updates from cops for weeks, says family's lawyer
PETALING JAYA: The family of Datin Seri Pamela Ling Yueh remains uninformed about her disappearance, says lawyer Sangeet Kaur Deo. "The family has provided more information than was requested over the past six weeks, yet there has been no feedback on the investigations. "Despite reportedly taking statements from 47 people, the police have no leads," she added. She further mentioned that the police informed the family about a car used in the alleged abduction being found abandoned near the Thailand border, but there have been no updates on that lead. "Weeks later, there have been no updates regarding forensic testing on the items found in the car," she said. "Given the obvious possibility that she was taken across the border, the family was last informed a few weeks ago that Interpol had not yet been alerted. What is the police waiting for?" she questioned. On April 9, Pamela was summoned to the Malaysia Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) headquarters in Putrajaya to assist with an investigation under the MACC Act 2009 and the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing, and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act. However, she reportedly went missing while on her way to the appointment. Her lawyer filed a police report regarding her disappearance on the same day. So far, no ransom demand has been made in connection with her disappearance.
