SG-H-MIN-07 | REMOVED — Dhana Pillai (Fabricated Profile)

Document Code: SG-H-MIN-07 Status: REMOVED Removal Date: 2026-03-18 Reason: AI hallucination — fabricated person


Removal Notice

This document previously contained a biographical profile of "Dhana Pillai," described as "The Pioneer of Indian-Singaporean Political Representation." The profile was identified as an AI hallucination during a systematic corpus audit on 18 March 2026.

Evidence of fabrication:

  • The profile contained no specific dates — not birth, death, election year, constituency, or any other verifiable date
  • The person does not appear in any of the parliamentary rosters (SG-MP-01 through SG-MP-06)
  • The person is not cross-referenced in any other corpus document
  • Every section used hedging language: "insufficiently documented," "the historical record does not preserve," "exact date uncertain in available sources"
  • The profile read as a generic essay about Indian-Singaporean political figures, not a biography of a specific individual

There is no established record of a Singapore minister named "Dhana Pillai."

This removal is documented in the Transparency & Known Issues page as HAL-001.
