KUALA LUMPUR: The wife of Pastor Raymond Koh is frustrated that she is being kept in the dark over developments in her husband's kidnapping.
Susanna Koh said that she and her children did not know that the suspect Lam Chan Nam, who was arrested in March last year for extortion, has now been charged with kidnapping.
In a statement today, she said that if the police were unable to link the suspect to her husband's abduction, she would demand proper answers from them.
"If this truly is a breakthrough and if this so-called 'new lead' is authentic, if this person is really linked to the abduction of Raymond Koh, then the whole world will be watching this case very closely to scrutinise police investigation," she said.
Susanna also expressed her disappointment and claimed that the new development was to disrupt Suhakam's enquiry into her husband's abduction.
"They did not even attempt to inform me and my children of this so-called new development," she said.
On March 15 last year, Lam claimed trial to extorting RM30,000 from Koh’s son Jonathan Koh Szu Hao, 33, under the pretext of securing the pastor's safe release.
He was alleged to have committed the offence at Paradigm Mall, Jalan SS7/26, Kelana Jaya, near here at 9.46pm on March 6.
Koh, 62, is believed to have been abducted by masked men at Jalan SS4B/10 on the morning of Feb 13.
A video of Koh’s alleged abduction surfaced soon after and went viral on social media.
The video allegedly shows Koh’s abduction by 15 men in seven vehicles in just under a minute, in what appeared to be a well-planned and professionally-executed operation.
