    "content": "(6) OB No. 12/ 09/ 11/ 2021 at Kiamashiri Police Station: Bless Ann Wangeci Maina went missing on her way back from school. The victim has never been traced to date and the case is still pending under investigations. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the Government takes abduction very seriously and is therefore inviting any person who has information that can assist the police in the investigations to volunteer the same and the same will be treated with confidence, in order to bring accountability to the outstanding cases, which I have listed here and others across the country that fall in a similar category. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the Government has employed the following measures to enhance security and bring to book the perpetrators of these abductions and disappearances: - (1) We have intensified both foot and mobile patrols along the highway. We have increased the patrols along that highway. (2) We have expedited the investigations into all the reported cases of missing persons. (3) The police are working closely with members of the public to engage in the reporting of missing persons in time. In other words, we are investing in a better police- public relationship as the solution to ensuring that cases like these are investigated and culprits arrested because the public holds the key to successful investigations and arrests. (4) Sensitizing communities on the importance of sharing intelligence and prompt reporting whenever there is an incident. (5) We have revitalized community policing, the Nyumba Kumi Initiative in the area in order to enhance information sharing. (6) Finally, members of the public are continuously being sensitized to be sensitive to security. We must sensitize our members to be conscious of their own security, not go to places unless they are sure about the environment and report suspicious persons likely to be criminals. I submit, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir."
