Northeast district police chief Assistant Commissioner Gan Kong Meng said the forensic and chemistry departments could not trace any remains of Lim after scouring for Lim's DNA from the car wreckage unearthed from the gaping hole.

"We believe his body is there (buried below the road surface) and it cannot be recovered," Gan told a press conference today.

He said the police would resort to circumstantial evidence like closed circuit television footage images, car chassis number and an eyewitness report to conclude that Lim was indeed inside the crumbled Honda City.

Meanwhile, a Penang Island Municipal Department engineering department spokesman said the hole patching works were almost completed.

Barring unforeseen weather conditions, he said the road would be re-opened early tomorrow morning after the workers laid three layers of sand, crushed gravels and tar to flatten the hole throughout the day.
