According to another insider who did not want to be named, the strategy was to be in place until close to the GE 14. But it was flung open early and UMNO had to follow through.
Somehow PKR knew something was not right and when Bank Islam did not pursue the RM 66 Million debt from Khalid, PKR leadership's worst nightmare became a reality and all those suspicions seem to fall in place. The peculiar behaviour and decisions by Khalid throughout begin to make sense.
That was why the KAJANG MOVE became urgent and imperative for PKR and for Pakatan.
Remember, according to the insider, the out of court settlement between Khalid and Bank Islam took place in mid-February 2014, and immediately the KAJANG MOVE was put into effect in March 2014 to stem the political damage to Pakatan.
Because the Selangor Palace got enmeshed in all this, it became sensitive for PKR to spill out the true details and reasons for the KAJANG MOVE. However, that became a fact in recent days.
By then, Khalid knew the game was up. He played on his role in the Kajang Move while his handlers sort out this un-expected hit back by PKR.
Khalid was advised to hang on to the post after UMNO knew they secured the support of the Selangor Palace. The forced outcome when it comes to the final push and shove by Pakatan is fresh elections in Selangor
The MB Selangor issue was too big and the stakes were too high, and that is why the Kajang Move was crucial to counter act and negate the POLITICAL manuveures of Putrajaya and those advising the Selangor Palace.
Unfortunately, PAS had a myopic view of the Selangor MB issue because Khalid played the Palace card.
What is not understood is why PAS President Hadi Awang decided to continue to back Khalid since it is rumoured he was told and knew exactly the reasons for the Kajang Move. Has UMNO-BN got one on him too ?

PKR did not have the instruments to vet him before his mane was put up for the post. They have to take primary responsibility. Do not blame UMNO. They only played on the weakness of PKR
