Bala reveals that to date he was paid RM750,000 but the harassment continues and he feels more like a prisoner. He says he has come out of the closet so that the harassment can end and he can lead a normal life again. He just wants his life back.
THE CORRIDORS OF POWER
Raja Petra Kamarudin
Q 69. How long had you known ASP Suresh before this incident?
A. I have known him for about 10 years. I met him when he was a senior Investigation Officer at the IPK Kuala Lumpur. I was a private investigator then. ASP Suresh used to ask me to assist him in obtaining fast traces and details on mobile phones as I had contacts in the phone companies and was able to get the information required faster than the police who had to go through official channels.
At one stage I was working for ASP Suresh as a bouncer at his pub in Jalan Imbi.
He had been suspended from his duties as a police officer sometime in 2006 as he was being investigated for corruption by the ACA.
Q 70. Had you met Deepak before this incident?
A. No. But I had done some PI work for his brother Dinesh in the past. I knew Deepak was Dinesh’s brother.
Q 71. You have said that you met a Malay VIP Datuk outside the Volkswagen showroom at The Curve on the night of July 3rd 2008. Who was this gentleman?
A. He was Datuk Nazim Razak, the younger brother of Najib. He was there with his pregnant wife. Although I did not speak to her, I recognised her as being a TV personality. I think she was the host on the ‘Nona’ programme.
Deepak was the one who brought them there to meet me.
That is why ASP Suresh did not want us to meet in a place where there would have been a CCTV camera.
Q 72. When you were in the Hilton Hotel at KL Sentral with Deepak, Dinesh and ASP and after you had signed the 2nd statutory declaration, was there anything said to you which you consider to be significant?
A. Yes there were two things which Deepak told me.
He informed me that Rosmah was very happy with me for retracting my 1st statutory declaration and wanted to have breakfast with me.
When I enquired from Deepak how long I was expected to leave the country for, he informed me it would be until Najib became the next Prime Minister and that I could return after that.
Q 73. When did you contact your lawyer Americk Sidhu?
A. I called him in the middle of July 2009. I was still in India then. I wanted to arrange a meeting with him to inform him what had happened to me and to apologise for all the trouble I had caused. Americk was in the UK when I called him so we arranged to meet in Kuala Lumpur when he returned at the beginning of August.
Q 74. Did you meet him?
A. Yes. We met in early August. At the meeting were two other senior lawyers who Americk had arranged to be present. I told them everything that had happened to me from the time I left Americk’s office in the evening of the 3rd July 2008.
Q 75. Did you realise that this meeting had been secretly videoed?
A. I did not realise I was being filmed. I was however subsequently informed that a recording had been made and this video is safekeeping. I understand this was done to protect me in the event something untoward happened to me again.
Q 76. How did you manage to survive financially all the time you were away?
A. Deepak arranged intermittent payments to be made to me. Some payments were made to my wife directly into her account with the EON Bank in KL.
Other payments were made to ASP Suresh who then arranged payment to me directly or through a friend of mine in Malaysia.
I have copies of some of the cheques issued by Deepak Jaikishan and from his company Carpet Raya Sdn Bhd.
I also have copies of my wife’s bank statements showing the deposits which were made.
I also have copies of my HSBC account in Chennai.
Q 77. How much money did you receive from Deepak from the time you left Malaysia in July 2008 till now?
A. All together approximately RM750,000.00.
Q 78. Do you have any money left?
A. Yes, I have invested approximately RM250,000.00 for my future as I am not sure what will happen to me.
I also spent some money on renovations to my house in Rawang as my wife and youngest child were there. These renovations were in respect of the security of my home only.
The rest of the money was spent on renting accommodation in Chennai, paying for my children’s schooling and for daily expenses.
Q 79. Didn’t Deepak promise you RM5 million?
A. The negotiations were all conducted by ASP Suresh at the Bak Kut Teh stall in Rawang on the night of the 3rd July 2008. I was not involved in these negotiations as I was not concerned about money but the safety of my family.
I have subsequently come to realise that ASP Suresh had a vested interest in all this as I know he has received about the same amount of money from Deepak as I have. His job was to keep me under control. This is why he is annoyed with me for not following his instructions because his income from Deepak would be affected.
Q 80. Why did you wait so long before revealing all this?
A. When I was at the Hilton Hotel at KL Sentral, I had asked Deepak how long I would have to stay out of the country. He told me it would have to be until Najib became the Prime Minister.
I could not return to Malaysia before February 2009 as one Kumar had my passport in his possession in India for 5 months.
I only got my passport back after I complained to Deepak when he visited me in India with ASP Suresh. Deepak called his brother Rajesh to find out what had happened to my passport and within 2 days Kumar asked me to pick it up from him.
I was at this time in India illegally as my visa had expired on the 5th September 2008.
In order to get my visa extended I had to seek assistance from my wife’s uncle the exco member who managed to get it extended for 1 year. Only after this was I able to travel back to Malaysia.
Q 81. What happened when you arrived back in Malaysia in February 2009?
A. When I landed in KL, I called Dinesh to inform him I was back in Malaysia. I was summoned to Deepaks office in Sungai Besi at 11.45 pm the same night and was told in no uncertain terms to leave the country immediately, but I stayed a little longer as I wanted to be with my children and my wife. They didn’t know I had not left immediately.
Q 82. Why did you come back to Malaysia in April 2009?
A. Just to see my wife and children. This time I did not tell anyone I was back and so I was not harassed.
Q 83. Why have you now decided to reveal everything?
A. Because I want to stop all harassments and so that I can return to my normal life.
Q 84. Were the contents of your 1st statutory declaration true?
A. Yes.
Q 85. Were you forced to sign the 1st statutory declaration under duress?
A. Absolutely not. Normal 0 0 1 13 79 Malaysia Today 1 1 97 11.1282 0 0 0 (See the video here: Was PI intimidated or induced?)
Q 86. Were you forced to sign the 2nd statutory declaration under duress?
A. Yes, because I was fearful for the safety of my family and I did not read the contents of the 2nd statutory declaration before I was asked to sign it.Part 2: Bala’s prison without bars
Part 3: The Malaysian police catch up with Bala
Part 4: Bala finds his life turned upside down

Police track missing PI, record his statement
KUALA LUMPUR, July 9, 2008 (Bernama) -- Police have tracked private investigator P. Balasubramaniam's whereabout and recorded his statement in connection with his statutory declarations as well as his disappearance from the country.
Bukit Aman CID Chief Datuk Mohd Bakri Zinin said Balasubramaniam, who was reported missing since Friday, was currenty abroad and a team of police officers had been dispatched there to record his statement.
He declined to reveal which country Balasubramaniam was currently in.
"We have sent several officers there to record his statement. He is still abroad," he told Bernama when contacted.
Mohd Bakri said the police got hold of Balasubramaniam whereabout following information provided by the authorities there.
He also declined to say when was it that the police came to know of Balasubramaniam's whereabout.
"There is not need to know when. The important thing is our officers are already there to record his statement," he said.
Mohd Bakri also said the police needed some time to investigate the matter.
"Give us rooms to carry out the investigations without having to put up with unnecessary pressure," he said, adding that the police would investigate the matter in a transparent and professional manner.
Balasubramaniam made headlines a week ago when he came up with a statutory declaration, alleging Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak's involvement with Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu.
Balasubramaniam however issued another statutory declaration on July 3 to retract all statements he made against Najib in the earlier declaration dated July 1.

you bungkus mentality....Bala has admitted that he corruptly received 750K of public money - what are you waiting for - arrest and charge him for corruption.
The tax payers wants our money back for proper purposes, not to sent a PI for extended holidays in Singapore, Thailand, Nepal and India.

Surely you must know that you simply cannot win when you deal with the devil.
In the beginning, you must have been thrilled to bits with the high-roller life style...probably your fantasy of being James Bond 007...jetting in and out of the country...fast & lavish life style without having to work for the money...easy-come-easy-go where money is concern...and even have excess money to stash away...and you must be in six heavens when told that fat mama Roastmah is pleased with your second SD...Man, you must though you have it all!
Then, all of a sudden, or maybe gradually, reality must have sunk into that head of yours and euphoria of easy-street is replaced with the thought that najib & wife is not going to let you become a threat to their cozy lives. You realize that, sooner or later, nothing is for free and there is going to be a price to be paid for your new found life style, as Altantuyah unfortunately discovered. But then, maybe, if you have got your hands on those rm5 millions, instead of that “miserable” rm750k, we would not be reading your narration of your…ehh, fugitive?..past 1 year life on the…ehh, run?
Being an ex-policeman, and a PI to boot, surely you must know that powerful and rich people just do not like allow anyone to be a threat to their powers.
So now, after those many trips back and forth from your "hiding" place, and with people sick with worry for your & your family's safety, you finally make use of MT in an attempt to save your sorry ass.
I really don't know what to make of you at this point in time, but I if najib & roastmah decides to "collect" on you tomorrow, I'll not be one bit least surprise.
I think that phrase, "You made your bed, now lie on it" might be most apt here in your case. However, I do hope you will survive through this, but I kinda have my doubts.
May your God be with you and your family.

And this from the Star on 19 November 2009:
“He should know that he is wanted in assisting us in a case and take the initiative to come in personally and have his statement recorded,” he said.
Musa was responding to questions regarding Balasubramaniam’s alleged entry back into the country about eight times since he disappeared on July 3 last year.
Errrr .... IGP didn't know or doesn't remember or simply ignorant of the fact that his men had already obtained a statement from Bala? Is there a team A and team B in PDRM as well? Whats going on here?

We already seen that Musa is extended despite the poor safety and safekeeping record of outinternal security. I suppose Mahathir was right when he said this is a Police State during Badawi's administration. Wonder why old man is keeping so quiet now.

A. No, because Deepak fear that this evidence might lands in the hand of opposition MP Anwar or Tian Chua.
Q.88. So now do you have any thing to say to Deepak?
A. Yes, i just want him to keep his promise by give me the balance of RM4.25 millions, so that i will retract this week's revelation in MT and migrate for good to Marshall Islands in the Pacific Ocean, where i can buy one small island there and rename that island to " 1Rosmah" and doing money changer business there.
Q. Do you think Deepak will agree to that?
A. Sorry, i really dont know, as i am not sure whether he is still alive or not, or maybe being "C4ed" in Taman Negara already.
Q. Thanks for your bravo and may god Buddha save you and your family.

It is revolting to see how slow justice moves here, where are all Malaysia's good men? How do we go about bringing this saga of deception, murder, blackmail, perjury, conspiracy, immorality and treachery to its logical end?
RPK's effort is the single most visible attempt to wringing out the truth.
He is a precious son of Malaysia. I wish I could do something than just read a thriller unfloding.

The next million dollar question will be what will be the next course of action for Rosnah and Najib to strategize? Will Najib/Rosnah continue to deny their knowledge of Altantuya and her subsequent murder and Rosnah's connection with Deepak?
How will this impinge on the rest of UMNO partners's perception on Najib?
is there a possibility that Najib's tenure of office will witness an unprecedented tussle for power ?
What will happen to Bala, to Deepak, to ASP Suresh. Will Rosnah take this recent revelation in her stride and execute another covert masterplan to stifle this damning piece of incriminating information on her involvement?
This is going to be another 'Grisham' series of thriller of plot and counter plot.
We await for RPK's next episode, and only RPK can keep us in utter suspense!.
written by educationist, November 20, 2009 06:09:11
But this series of revelations will go the way of all the circumstantial evidence linking najis with altantuya.
The authorities here will not investigate their boss , that musang chap even openly lied he has no knowledge bala has been back in the country.
I am no lawyer but the way i see the new information is that there will still be no new developments for altantuya and her family to get justice until new solid concrete evidence comes up!

DeFcuk: Ya lah! What should we do about him? We already gave him RM750,000, he still want some more!
Suresh: Sheesh. . .!, you are the one who promised him RM5 million and you also promised him he could return to KL when Jibby had been installed as the PeeM!
DeFcuk: Ahh. . ., don’t worry lah thamby. That mattress carrier and his deputy sure do nothing. Don’t worry. . ., people will forget.

God knows why Razak baginda got his help..
He already mentioned that the datuk doesnt want to be seen in cctv hence meeting outside the showroom. D& D are the runners la!!! Doing all the dirty work. Only fella above them must be part of the family loh.. if infomation goes to everyone , definitely leak one..
I suspect The Top 4 does not trust police on this matter or other agents, so they use the carpet people whom could have gained their trust in previous escapades.
If you notice, The SD has a situation refering to sexual encounter which is only given to bala when his service needed to becontinued.
The same could be applied here, to make him belief that they are serious shit abt this issue, The datuk could have appeared. It does seem to have worked and freaked out this ametuer PI!

He informed me that Rosmah was very happy with me for retracting my 1st statutory declaration and wanted to have breakfast with me.
O.k let me get this straight. Bala gets a bribe to retract his statement and it seems the Razak family are queing up to meet him. Datuk Razak, his famous wife and the wife of the PM wants to have breakfast with him. Give me a break, even if they did bribe him the last thing any member of the family would do is to be seen within 100miles of Bala. The media, online media included would have a party if any of the Razak family were seen meeting Bala. Lesson 1 in bribes, if your a VIP you don't meet, go near or communicate in any way with the person you are bribing. Also, no VIP would lose a minute sleep to meet with someone like Bala, they have runners to do that sort of thing. This story has too many holds to be anywhere near true.
written by Smiles21, November 20, 2009 01:02:35
The story has almost come to an end. Very interesting but trust my words, nobody will be persecuted except Bala himself for perjury. Just like Lingam's case, despite of setting up Royal Commission, they had concluded the case was closed cos lack of evidence or the key witness could not be found. In Malaysia, everything is negotiable, if you are willing to play the game.
Anyhow, congratulations to RPK for putting up a nice story for the country despite being a "coward" fugitive.
