SCHAPELLE Corby twice tried to take her own life during a two-hour meeting with Bali's parole boss, who says she believes the media is stalking her even as she sleeps.
Sunar Agus met the convicted drug smuggler on Monday night to discuss "various possibilities" that may follow the Seven Network's program about her release from prison.
Authorities had repeatedly warned the program may breach her parole by causing community unease.
Agus says he found Corby "unstable" and "afraid" at the home of her sister Mercedes and brother-in-law Wayan Widyartha.
When the topic of her parole was broached, she twice ran to the kitchen and grabbed a small knife, he told reporters on Tuesday.
Corby made an "effort to slice her arm" with the knife, but was twice restrained by Mercedes and the other parole officers.
Mercedes reportedly denies the incident, but the parole boss was clear.
"I couldn't be sure whether Corby held it with her right or left hand because ... from me, there was about a three metre distance," Mr Agus said.
He believes Corby thought the officers were there to take her back to prison.
She was also distressed about the media attention.
"According to her, while sleeping in her room, she's photographed by reporters," he said. Justice Minister Amir Syamsuddin on Tuesday repeated his earlier promise to carefully review the parole board's report on the program before deciding whether it had crossed the line by causing community unease.
The minister - who hasn't seen the program himself - said he expected the report soon, but didn't want it rushed.
"I'm giving Bapas (the parole board) enough time to be as comfortable as possible because this is something they need to study very well," he told reporters.
Mercedes told the program which aired on Sunday that her "broken" sister had to be bathed and hand-fed as she battled mental illness during her time in Bali's Kerobokan prison.
She also maintained the 36-year-old is innocent of smuggling 4.1kg of marijuana in her surfing gear in 2004.
Mercedes said the marijuana "could have been from Indonesia" or that perhaps an airport worker may have been responsible.
After interviewing Mercedes and Wayan to verify the statements made in the interview, Mr Agus said: "I suggest she (Corby) be more low profile".
I Gusti Kompyang Adnyana, head of Bali's Law and Human Rights provincial office, echoed the minister's view that the report must be considered carefully.
"This regards a problem that's quite in the spotlight," he said.
"We can't recklessly make the assessment."
Corby has now left the luxury villa she stayed in for three weeks while the Seven Network was negotiating the story, which it says was unpaid.
