"content": " I am continuing, Hon. Speaker. The autopsy report has taken inordinately long time because the late officer died in a foreign country, the United States of America. This prompted the need to establish the cause of his unfortunate death before the body could be flown back to Kenya. The report shall be given to the family upon completion of the autopsy, in conformity with the Kenyan laws and the right to privacy. The family of the late shall be given the medical report, without arbitrarily being deprived of the same, as guaranteed by Article 31 of the Constitution. This shall be done in a manner ensuring that the authority releasing such information does not contravene the family’s fundamental rights under the Constitution, which guarantees their inherent dignity. Finally, the Hon. Member asked when the family should expect the autopsy report and have the body of their loved one. The body of the late officer arrived in the country on 7th March 2024 and was received by the family in the company of senior officers of the National Police Service. He was laid to rest on the 15th March 2024 at his home in Nyamira County. The autopsy report shall be made available to the family once received from the United States of America. Thank you."

"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. However much I may not be very much satisfied with some of the responses given, I have something to say. On the first item, they have tried to answer the question of the mission in which officer Nyamato was involved. Yes, he was not destined for Haiti. However, the discussion and the agenda of his trip had to do with sending of our police officers to Haiti. I believe that is open for wider discussion. Regarding the second and third items, Nyamato passed on sometimes towards the middle February. His body was received in Kenya and buried in the middle of March, a month later. I attended the burial. It was right in my village. As we speak today, a month after the burial, the family is yet to receive the autopsy report. I did not seek a statement on who did what. My request for statement was on what caused the death of Inspector Nyamato. It is not right if we are saying the Government does not know what killed its officer, two months later. Whether it was a heart attack or stroke or poisoning, all we want to know is what led to the death of Inspector Nyamato. Two months down the road, the Government is waiting for a response from the United States of America. This leaves more questions than the answers given. Thank you."

Information on the autopsy report may not necessarily be released to the Government. Even if that is done, the family will receive that information first. The response by the Cabinet Secretary is very clear; that we must respect the fact that the family must be given this information in confidence. As it were, we even spoke to the Cabinet Secretary who is in contact with the Kenyan Embassy in Washington DC so that they can get the autopsy report. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor"

"content": " The saga surrounding the death of Inspector Nyamato raises more fundamental issues. It is not just about him but any other Kenyan officer who might find himself in a similar situation in future. Through the Chair, the relevant persons should take this matter a little bit more seriously. It is thoroughly agonising for a family to lose a loved one and, almost three months later, nobody is telling them what caused his death. Hon. Gisairo is asking for that simple thing. The question of what took Inspector Nyamato to Washington DC is not yet addressed. Inspector Nyamato was fairly a junior officer by all standards. The country and his family deserve full disclosure even if we are talking about national security. We deserve full disclosure. What role was Inspector Nyamato, a fairly junior officer, going to play in Washington DC if not Haiti? These questions have to be answered now or later. Thank you."
