SHAH ALAM – The vehicle believed to be involved in the abduction case of Datin Seri Pamela Ling Yueh was found abandoned near the Thailand border.
Ling's legal representative, Sangeet Kaur Deo, said there has been no update from authorities regarding the discovery.
According to Sangeet, Ling's family was informed about the discovery of the vehicle several weeks after her abduction on April 9.
'Several weeks have passed, yet there has been no update on the forensic testing of the items found in the car.
'Given the strong possibility that she was taken across the border, the family was also told that Interpol has yet to be notified. What exactly is the police waiting for?' she said in a statement on Monday.
On May 18, Kuala Lumpur police chief Datuk Rusdi Mohd Isa said that the whereabouts of Ling, who had been reported missing since April 9, have yet to be confirmed, whether she is still in the country or has been taken abroad.

According to him, checks on official records showed no exit from the country has been recorded involving Ling.
Further commenting, Sangeet said Ling was one of the key witnesses in a money laundering investigation but was allegedly kidnapped after failing to appear to give her statement at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) headquarters.
She also questioned the investigation procedures carried out by the authorities regarding the case.
'Have MACC officers been thoroughly questioned? Have the police identified the kind of information Ling was about to disclose to MACC and who the interested parties might be?
'Have statements been taken from them?' she questioned.
Sangeet also questioned whether the police had followed proper protocols in handling a missing persons case.
'It is clear that the police is not taking this disappearance seriously and they do not seem interested in conducting a thorough investigation.
'Selective investigations, where some cases are prioritised while others are blatantly ignored, amount to a denial of fundamental rights.
'While authorities continue to wait for yet another suspicious disappearance to be forgotten in this country, Malaysians must question and condemn the authorities' blatant and selective inaction,' she added.
