    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have shared with Sen. (Prof.) Lesan. I will therefore go directly to the answers. He asked about five questions. I wish to state as follows:- On 7th April, 2016, at 8.00 a.m., police officers on patrol at the Moi University, Bomet Campus construction site, impounded a garbage truck, registration No.036CG061A belonging to the County Government of Bomet which was found dumping garbage at the site. The truck was escorted to the Bomet Police Station where the driver was arrested and placed in cells. The same day, at about 5;30 p.m., the Governor of Bomet County, hon. Isaac Rutto, accompanied by a group of his supporters stormed Bomet Police Station and demanded to know why the garbage truck had been impounded by police. The driver of the garbage truck who had been arrested earlier was charged before a court of law by Bomet Police Station PCR224/2016 after which he was released on bond. He had denied the charge of trespass contrary to Section 5(1b) of the Trespass Act, Chapter 294 Laws of Kenya. He later absconded and a warrant of arrest was issued. The warrant is still in force and not many other arrests were made. There were no casualties and there was no destruction of property following the invasion. Following the invasion, Inquiry file No.4/216 was opened by the Directorate of Criminal Investigation, Bomet County. The matter is still pending under investigation. Public and private property in Bomet is secured including land and property belonging to Moi University, Bomet Campus. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
