Kuala Lumpur police chief Rusdi Isa says police also recorded a statement from a family acquaintance at the Woodlands police headquarters across the causeway.
Kuala Lumpur police chief Rusdi Isa said statements were obtained from her three children, aged between 18 and 20, at the Woodlands police headquarters in Singapore.
He added that police also recorded a statement from a family acquaintance in Singapore, bringing the total number of individuals questioned in the case to 42.
“The information obtained can help with the investigation, especially regarding her last known movements. She was still in contact with family members on April 8 and 9.
“The investigation is still ongoing,” he said in a Harian Metro report.
Ling, 42, was reported missing on April 9 while on her way to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission’s (MACC) headquarters in Putrajaya to give a statement for an ongoing investigation into alleged corruption and money laundering offences.
In May last year, MACC opened a probe into the cases that allegedly involved Ling and her husband, Sarawakian businessman Hah Tiing Siu.
Rusdi said while there is no record of Ling leaving the country, the authorities are considering the possibility that she may have been smuggled out of the country.
“However, it is most likely that she is still in the country,” he added.
Meanwhile, Rusdi said Hah was released on police bail on Friday after he was arrested on Thursday to assist in an investigation under Section 365 of the Penal Code, which pertains to abduction or wrongful confinement.
“We cannot consider him a suspect yet, but he can be called in at any time for further questioning if there are new developments,” he added. - FMT
