    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to support this Statement. I want to congratulate Sen. Shiyonga for bringing this Statement. Indeed, the police officer who did this act came out strongly as being brutal, callous and feeling less. It is unfortunate that even when he was doing that, the public around him was also just watching. I want to say without any fear that there is need to review the curriculum of police officers. Even during their training, an aspect of the human feelings needs to be incorporated in the curriculum. This is because once they are out of the forces, they are so detached from civilian life. Some of them have no feelings at all. There is need to look at how the curriculum is structured and see to it that units that bring out human feelings are incorporated in their training. It is unfortunate that Ms. Cherono’s dignity was brought down and that she was treated in a humiliating way leading to her bones being broken. There is need for her to be compensated and justice to be done for this family and Cherono, justice should not be delayed. There is need to ensure that the policeman who did this heinous act is brought to book to serve as an example to others of what it means when ethics are flouted. Every profession has ethics, and I am certain that even police officers have ethics. Those who flout them should be brought to book to avoid soiling the name of the police officers."
