Lawyer claims car linked to Pamela Ling's abduction found near Thai border

ONE of the cars seen on close circuit television (CCTV) footage linked to the abductio of Datin Seri Pamela Ling Yueh was found abandoned near the Thai border.

However, according to Ling’s  lawyer Sangeet Kaur Deo, no updates have been given on forensic testing of items found in the car.

"Over the past week, Ling’s family provided information beyond what was requested, but that there was no feedback on investigations into the information given.

“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,” she said in a statement.

She also questioned if the police had complied with its own standard operating procedures (SOPs) in missing persons cases, and if it had asked for expert assistance if it required such aid.

“Have the PDRM determined the nature of information that Pamela was providing to MACC and who were interested parties? Have statements been taken from them?” she asked.

Sangeet noted that the police have no leads after recording the statements of 47 persons in its investigation on her April 9 disappearance.

She said Ling’s family was informed by the police that they had been “able to find nothing” when asked about the investigation into Ling’s disappearance.

“It is becoming increasingly clear that the police have not taken this disappearance seriously, nor are they interested in genuinely investigating it.

“Selective investigations, where some cases receive attention while others are quietly ignored, are a denial of basic rights,” she said.

Ling, 42, was reported missing on April 9 while on her way to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission’s headquarters in Putrajaya.

On May 8, Kuala Lumpur police chief Rusdi Isa told a press conference that investigators had obtained CCTV recordings from the scene, which showed at least eight individuals involved, including two wearing police vests. - June 16, 2025
