Cops find no evidence linking politician to Pamela's vanishing
KUALA LUMPUR: Claims of the involvement of a politician in the disappearance of Datin Seri Pamela Ling Yueh are not supported by any evidence, says city police chief Comm Datuk Rusdi Mohd Isa. He said so far, the police have not obtained any leads to suggest the involvement of a politician in the matter. 'We also didn't get any statement that points in that direction,' he told reporters. Comm Rusdi said so far, the police have recorded the statements of 47 people, including the victim's three children and other acquaintances with the assistance of Singaporean authorities. 'The statements of her children and her friend were recorded at Woodlands police station in Singapore. 'The last time the children had any contact with her was on April 8, a day prior to her disappearance. 'After she disappeared, they had no contact with her,' he said. Asked on the five suspects who were involved in abducting Pamela, Comm Rusdi denied once again that they were policemen. 'They are not police personnel and we are in the midst of tracking them down,' he added. Commenting on the detention of Pamela's husband, he said the remand application was rejected as the court determined he could be called up again anytime to assist with the investigation. 'However, we used the 24 hours he was held to the maximum to investigate the matter intensively,' he added. He added there has been no new developments on Pamela's location. 'Investigation is still ongoing to determine whether she is still in the country or otherwise. 'So far, we found no evidence that she left the country,' he said. On allegations that Pamela had applied for a citizenship of another country, Comm Rusdi said it was a personal matter and could not be confirmed by the police. Police investigations also showed no money transfers to other individuals from Pamela's bank account. 'Based on our investigations we also do not see that she has another passport from another country,' he said. On April 9, Pamela was summoned to MACC headquarters 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. Her lawyer filed a police report regarding her disappearance on the same day. No ransom demand had been made in connection with her disappearance thus far.
