MACC to leave search for missing Datin Seri to cops


KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission is leaving it to the police to track down missing Datin Seri Pamela Ling Yueh.

Pamela was required to be at the MACC headquarters on April 9 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 failed to arrive at the MACC headquarters on the day and MACC officers failed to contact her.

"A police report was lodged by her lawyer over the disappearance," the MACC said in a statement on Sunday (May 4).

The MACC also urged the public to refrain from speculating on the case or spreading false information.

"Give the police sufficient space to investigate the matter," it added.

The police said no ransom demand has been received in connection with Pamela's alleged abduction.

Kuala Lumpur police chief Comm Datuk Rusdi Mohd Isa said the investigation into her disappearance is still ongoing.

"We have not received any new leads yet but the investigation is still ongoing.

"We have recorded the statements of 12 individuals including MACC officers and the victim's lawyer," he said.

Comm Rusdi previously said the 42-year-old woman is believed to have been abducted on April 9.

"She was scheduled to give a statement regarding an investigation by the MACC. The MACC had also confirmed her absence," he said.

He added that a police report was made by the victim’s lawyer in Seri Kembangan.
