But then again, life can be stranger than fiction. If only we knew what is going on in the background, i'm sure it would make an even much more interesting story. As it is, conspiracy theories abound.
In case you have been living under a shell in M'sia for the past couple of weeks - or you are not in Bolehland - and have no idea what i am talking about, i'm referring to the events that have rocked our nation in recent times. Allegations against 2 men who are in the running for the position of Prime Minister are coming fast and furious. They are implicated for crimes - and of course, sex is involved. Every day, new matter surfaces - i was almost disappointed this morning to wake up and find that nothing new or juicy made the headlines.
The latest however is that Bala has disappeared!!!! Yes, the very PI who dropped a bombshell by implicating the DPM in a statutory declaration which basically says that the DPM is a blatant and outright liar and suggest bigger involvement in an on-going murder case. Less than 24 hours later, he appeared in the news again, this time retracting his earlier SD, alleging it was made under duress.
So the conspiracy theorists are at it again - yes, the first SD was just a pack of lies and made under duress. No, the second SD was made under duress. Well, the nature of the SD are such that one is clearly a full of bullsh*t. Which one? Anybody's guess.
Take a look at these 2 photos (taken from the Star).
The first was taken when the 1st SD was made public. The 2nd was taken after the 2nd SD was announced to the press. From these 2 pics, which SD do you think was made under duress? I have my own private views, which shall remain just that - private!
In any event, we can't be 100% sure for now, can we? What we are sure of is that Bala is screwed. It is no wonder he has 'disappeared'.
If only we could have witnessed what took place in that short span of time between the first and second SD - now that would make an interesting movie. Was he so racked with guilt that he decided to come clean? The thought of destroying an innocent man's life, reputation and career really ate him up? Or was he pressured and finally gave in to threats and acted out of duress? Perhaps the 'dossier' on him which was kept under lock and key (and retina eye-scan) was summoned immediately after the first SD and used?
In some ways, i pity him - he is just another victim in this whole drama. Or is he?
Malaysia boleh!
*Literally translated as "This week's drama", this used to be the title of a local TV drama.
