Part 2: Bala’s prison without bars (P. Balasubramaniam)
Nov 19, 2009 RPK
Bala is made to sign the 2nd SD and is bundled out of the country. From thereon they keep him on a tight leash and he no longer has control over what he can say or do. He discovers he has just entered a life of imprisonment; although without the normal bars and padlocks but still a prison nevertheless.

Q 23. What happened next?
A. Deepak gave instructions to Dinesh to book a room at the Hilton Hotel KL Sentral. I left with ASP Suresh to my house in Rawang to see my wife and explain to her what was happening. I was concerned for the safety of my family. Deepak had informed me he wanted me to retract my 1st statutory declaration and then to immediately leave the country with my family. I was in a state of shock as to what was happening. I had anticipated that I would be arrested and interrogated after releasing my 1st statutory declaration but I did not anticipate my family would be threatened so I was not prepared for this. As this VIP Datuk was also involved, I realised the situation was very serious.

Anwar: Ketelusan Dalam Tadbir Urus Masih Menjadi Isu Utama
Oct 20, 2009 Anwar Ibrahim
Laporan Audit Negara tahun 2008 yang baru diperoleh oleh ahli parlimen menunjukkan kerajaan mungkin terpaksa menanggung beban sebahagian dari kerugian projek mega yang bernilai ribuan juta dana awam. Jabatan Audit Negara menganggarkan jumlah kerugian projek rel keretapi berkembar dari Rawang ke Ipoh berjumlah sekitar RM 1.14 billion.
Sehingga bulan Disember 2008 sebanyak RM 5.77 billion telah dibelanjakan untuk projek tersebut, bermaksud 32.9%(RM 1.43billion) lebih tinggi dari nilai sebenar, iaitu sekitar RM 4.34 billion.
Malahan Laporan tersebut mengakui bahawa kelemahan pengurusan yang mengakibatkan kerugian yang sebegini besar. Saya percaya perkataan yang tertera dalam Laporan Audit sedikit “diplomatik.” Sesungguhnya ada bukti jelas seumpama penangguhan dan memesan secara lebih bahan untuk projek tersebut sudah cukup buat kita menyiasat jika wujudnya sebarang penyelewengan.
