PI Bala’s widow apologies to Najib, storms out of media event

The widow of private investigator P. Balasubramaniam today apologised to the prime minister and his wife for allegations against them in the killing of Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu, but inexplicably stormed out of a press conference minutes later. A. Santamil Selvi read out her apology in an office in Petaling Jaya but ran off after she was unable to answer questions about her statement. She later said her husband's statutory declaration linking Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak and his wife Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor was true. Last December, the Federal Court dismissed her application to amend her notice of appeal on the grounds that her application was "insufficient", failing to pass the threshold section 96(A) of Courts of Judicature Act. Selvi had tried to name and sue Najib and Rosmah, among others, for purportedly sending she and her family into exile in 2008. She had previously filed a notice of appeal against eight orders made by the High Court to the Court of Appeal. – March 12, 2016.  MORE TO COME]]>
