    "content": "hurt at that time and have not been able to come to terms with what happened. They also said that nobody has talked to them about the issue of compensation. I would like to encourage the Committee that as they move forward to meet the US ambassador, they should have their documents right. Who exactly was paid because it is known? If they do not have the documentation, let the documentation come before they even go to the USA so that it is very clear who was paid and who was not paid. Audit is very important. Even if the people who were paid were those who were in the Embassy, we know the law of compensation in this land, leave alone the one in the USA. According to the law of Kenya, if you were involved in an accident that was caused by a vehicle, for example, a matatu, even if you were not inside that matatu, you will be compensated by the insurance company. So if we are going to compensate people who have been affected by an accident, we are expecting that the USA will look at these victims mercifully knowing that they are victims of some accident of some sort. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we know that there is a fund which we were informed was started in the USA in 2014; that is, the Anti-Terrorism Fund in the USA. These are the people who should be taken care of. We really want to close this chapter. Our appeal to the US Embassy and to our colleagues, the Senators in the USA, is that we close this chapter. We believe that our colleagues, the Senators, have not heard the real story and we believe that if we take the real story to them, things will be done. I thank you."
