    "content": "In reference to the killings of the two young men in Kianjokoma, Runyenjes in Embu, the National Police Service allowed the responsible agencies to carry out their independent investigations. They presented their findings to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) who concluded that the officers on duty on the fateful day were criminally responsible for the deaths. He recommended that they be prosecuted. So, far six officers have answered to murder charges with further two being processed to answer for the same. Hon. Speaker, as you are aware, there is a specific Request of Statement on this matter by Hon. Erick Muchangi, for which I have since received a response but I am counterchecking certain facts and seeking further clarification before I present it to this House. In respect to the killing of the young men in Kitengela, investigations were carried out and one suspect, who was the mastermind of the attack, was arrested and has since been presented to court to answer to four counts of murder and malicious damage to property. More suspects are being sought and will likely be charged upon arrest."
