    "content": "(Hon. (Prof.) Kithure Kindiki): Mr. Speaker, Sir, investigations are not concluded and the murder file on the deceased is still open. Murder files are never closed and there is no statute of limitations on murder offences. Therefore, I assure the House that all persons who may have participated in any way, directly or indirectly, in the heinous and cruel murder of the deceased will be held accountable. As the Cabinet Secretary responsible for our national security, I assure the Senate that the Government has full confidence in the work of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), particularly in the investigations being carried out by the Homicide Unit in this matter and all the other matters and, therefore, there is no cause of alarm. Finally, Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the event that any member of the public has any information that can help us link anyone or they think that there is evidence linking anyone to this murder, please, give us the evidence. However, at the moment, we are analysing data and from the request of the hon. Senator, I will be asking the agencies to expedite without interfering with the work that is being done. We want to make sure that by the time we take people to court, we will have them convicted. For these five persons, I see no room for manoeuvre. They will have to be held accountable because the evidence is watertight."
