BALA THE BABBLER.

Mr. balasubramaniam a/l perumal has become a celebrity overnight. He was, as many remember, the gentleman who made a statutory declaration. It was made on the 1^st of july 2008.

Much of the SD is a recollection of events surrounding the death of Altantuya Shaaribu and the alleged involvement of various people. In particular the main accused- Abdul Razak Badinda

But what made Bala’s SD special were paragraphs linking Dato Seri Najib to the whole sordid affair. In particular, are the following:-

a) Razak Baginda informed me that he was introduced to Altantuya Shaaribu by a VIP;

(b) Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak informed Abdul Razak Baginda that he had a sexual relationship with Altantuya Shaaribu and that she was susceptible to anal intercourse;

(c) Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak instructed Razak Baginda to look after Altantuya Shaaribu as he did not want her to harass him since he was the Deputy Prime Minister;

(d) Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, Abdul Razak Baginda and Altantuya Shaaribu had met and all been together at a dinner in Paris;

(e) Altantuya Shaaribu wanted money in the sum of USD$500,000 as a commission for a submarine deal she assisted with in Paris;

(f) Altantuya Shaaribu met Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak in Singapore;

(g) Altantuya Shaaribu wanted to arrange to see Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak;

(h) I told the police about the relationship between Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and Altantuya Shaaribu but when it came to sign my statement, this detail was left out;

(i) The prosecutor during the course of the trial in the High Court of Shah Alam did not ask me any question in respect of Altantuya Shaaribu's purported relationship with Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak or of a phone call I received from one DSP Musa Safri, whom I believe was the ADC to Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and/or his wife;

(j) Razak Baginda informed me that he had sent Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak an SMS the evening before be was arrested but did not receive a response; and

(k) Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak sent an SMS to Razak Baginda on the day of his arrest to the effect that he was going to see the IGP that day and that the matter should be resolved and for Razak Baginda to remain calm.

It is clear that those passages implicate and link Dato Seri Najib to the whole affair. In particular it demolished Dato Seri Najib’s claim the he did not know Altantuya.

Twenty four hours later, Mr. Balasubramaniam retracted his original SD. He now refutes his own information as follows:-

At no material time did Razak Baginda inform me that he was introduced to Altantuya Shaaribu by a VIP;

(b) At no material time did Razak Baginda inform me that Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak had a sexual relationship with Altantuya Shaaribu and that she was susceptible to anal intercourse;

(c) At no material time did Razak Baginda inform me that Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak to look after Altantuya Shaaribu as he did not want her to harass him since he was the Deputy Prime Minister;

(d) At no material time did Razak Baginda or/and Altantuya Shaaribu inform me that Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, Abdul Razak Baginda and Altantuya Shaaribu had met and all been together at a dinner in Paris;

(e) At no material time did Altantuya Shaaribu inform me that she wanted money in the sum of USD$500,000 as a commission for a submarine deal she assisted with in Paris;

(f) At no time whatsoever did Razak Baginda or/and Altantuya Shaaribu inform me that met Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak in Singapore;

(g) At no time whatsoever did Altantuya Shaaribu inform me that she wanted me to arrange to see Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak;

(h) At no time did I tell the police during the course of their investigations about any relationship between Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and Altantuya Shaaribu as no such relationship existed to my knowledge. Accordingly, the statement I signed before the police is complete;

(i) At no time did Razak Baginda infor me that he had Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak an SMS the evening before he was arrested; and

(k) At no time did Razak Baginda inform me that Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak had sent him an SMS on the day of his arrest to the effect that he was going to see the IGP that day and that the matter should be resolved and for Razak Baginda to remain calm.

Something is not right here. It would appear his second SD was clearly rehearsed so as to rebut point by point those passages relating to Dato Seri Najib. Finally, Bala casually dismissed all the contents of his July 1^st SD.

The damage as they say, has been done. The image and credibility of Dato Seri Najib are already in jeopardy. We can look forward to a long season of back and forth claims by the contending parties.

There was an interesting proposal put forward by the mufti of Perlis. It is a Islamic practise of confession before God known as MUBAHALAH. it involves the claimants of innocence to swear before Allah using the Holy Quran as witness, that they did not do what they are accused of. Further as proof of their innocence, they enjoin Allah to deliver immediate divine retribution.

Hence Dato Seri Anwar and Saiful are urged to carry out MUBAHALAH to affirm their innocence and that if they lie, they would get divine retribution quickly. It is some sort of divine lie detector with immediate retribution.

Would Dato Seri Najib and Datin Rosmah avail themselves to a MUBAHALAH? He to swear that he does not know Altantuya nor is he involved in those things mentioned by Bala’s first SD.

She to swear that she was not present when the Mongolian was c4ored.

DEUS MISEREATUR- May God Have Mercy.

As a closing, perhaps we may consider this theory. Bala actually does not contradict himself. He does not perjure himself. Indeed, the two SDs actually reinforce Dato Najib’s involvement by entrenching the idea by way of asserting the opposite. In other words, it’s an application of reverse psychology. In the end, when Bala babbled, the people become more convinced of Dato Najib’s involvement.
