    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is the second incident involving police officers and civilians. The Assistant Minister has claimed that the watchman reported the incident at 4.30 a.m. about some suspects that were not known. He said that later, the two; one regular policeman and one Administration Policeman were arrested and later released. We can understand when a policeman goes to a hospital at 6.00 a.m. The other day we read about the incident in Makindu District Hospital where gunmen went and killed a person who had already been hospitalized. The victim could not make the statement. When the statement was made, he confirmed that the people released were re- arrested. This means that from the very beginning those were the same people who were responsible for this crime. It is unfortunate that the community overreacted leading to massive losses. They did so, because the perception was that the police were protecting their colleagues. That is the basis of this statement. What assurances can he give to this House that a crime committed by fellow policemen will be investigated quickly and the suspects arrested immediately, so that this kind of reaction by the community does not take place again? We have information that the OCS got the information at 3.00 a.m.---"
