Kuala Lumpur: Police are investigating the possibility that Pamela Ling Yueh was abducted by individuals impersonating police officers or legitimate authorities, following her disappearance on April 9. Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Razarudin Husain stated that the investigation is also considering the testimony of the e-hailing driver who transported Pamela to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) headquarters in Putrajaya on the day of the incident, alongside a review of closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Inspector-General Razarudin explained that all relevant information and witness statements, including those from the e-hailing driver, are currently being collected. “We are still investigating claims that the victim was abducted by individuals wearing police uniforms or vests,” he said when contacted. He further mentioned that the police cannot disclose additional details at this stage to avoid compromising future plans and actions.

The Inspector-General has instructed the Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department (CID) to assist the Kuala Lumpur Police Contingent in the investigation, including efforts to trace the victim’s whereabouts. He declined to comment on whether Ling’s alleged abduction was planned due to assets or wealth she possessed but did not dismiss the possibility that the case was orchestrated to discredit MACC and the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM).

Pamela, aged 42, was reported missing while heading to the MACC headquarters in Putrajaya in an e-hailing vehicle on April 9 to give a statement related to an ongoing investigation. Police received a report of her disappearance at 3:02 pm the same day.

Kuala Lumpur Police Chief Datuk Rusdi Mohd Isa stated that statements have been recorded from 12 witnesses so far, and no ransom demands have been received in connection with her disappearance. The case is being investigated under Section 365 of the Penal Code for abduction with intent to wrongfully confine a person.
