Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order No. 44(2)(c), I seek to request for a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security regarding the killing of two residents of Garissa Township Constituency in Garissa County by the police. Two adult residents from of Garissa Township Constituency namely: Muhiyadin Adow Shibin ID Card No. 13117510 and Aden Abdi Madobe aged 51, ID Card No. 9564147 were killed by police officers under unclear circumstances. It is alleged that they were killed as the police were pursuing a suspect in Garissa Livestock Market, Garissa Town on Saturday 26th July, 2020. Article 26(1) of the Constitution guarantees one right to life and Article 244(a)(c) and (e) requires public officials, including the police service, to observe high standards of professionalism and discipline, to comply with the constitutional standards on human rights, and foster and promote relationships with the broader society that they serve as required by the police force. In addition, any police officer must adhere to the provisions of the Sixth Schedule of the National Police Service Act as revised in 2014 while executing his or her duties. It is against this background that I seek a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security on the following: 1) What steps have been taken to ensure speedy investigation, arrest and prosecution"
