    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am sure it is the Committee on National Security, Defense and Foreign Relations that will investigate this matter. They must be more serious when interrogating these issues. When Sen. Cherargei was the Chairperson of this Committee, he brought here a report concerning extrajudicial killings. This issue is still there. I remember contributing to it. Over two years ago, my Personal Assistant who worked in my office was abducted and murdered. His body was found dropped in Kapenguria forest. The same thing happened in Sen. Poghisio’s county, where three Pokot businessmen were murdered and dropped in Kaptagat Forest in Keiyo South. If we continue like this, it I will be dangerous. I request media houses to stop socializing the public to normalize extrajudicial killings. If someone is a criminal, there are judicial processes of ensuring they are brought to book for accountability. However serious, we should stop normalizing extrajudicial killings for as long as an explanation is given that the victim was a robbery, terrorism or other crimes suspect. A country that wants to build itself to be a country of the rule of law, we must normalize the process of arrest of suspects and take them to court to be charged."
