    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I will be very brief. I rise to support this Report. We have had this Report in this House from the 12th Parliament. As the Chairman indicated, the previous Committee in the 12th Parliament had done most of the work. You were a Member of the Committee in the 12th Parliament and still a Member of the Committee in this Parliament, and we commend the Committee for the work they did. However, I have had engagements around the unfortunate murder of Agnes Wanjiru in Nanyuki. We have a responsibility collectively as leaders who represent people in our constituencies, not just in Laikipia County, to ensure that whoever is training, be it the military or the police or whether you are working in this country as an expatriate, respects the sanctity of life of Kenyans. Therefore, I ask our investigative agencies not to let this matter die if this Report is adopted. Our investigative agencies and those in the UK must work together to ensure that they get to the bottom of what happened to the life of the late Agnes Wanjiru. Like in all other countries, when one of us loses their life, it must be a matter of concern to all of us as a country. We cannot sweep the death of Agnes Wanjiru under the carpet. I had an engagement with the Minister for Defence Forces for the United Kingdom sometime back when he paid a courtesy call to my office, and he indicated their willingness and determination to get to the bottom of this issue. I encourage the Directorate of Criminal"
