    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as the world celebrated the day of the African Child two days ago on the 16th day of June, 2009, Kenya was, instead, treated to alarming cases of gross violations of the rights of the child through sexual abuse. Could the Minister kindly explain the following:- (a)whether the statistics desegregated by gender, children who have reported cases of sexual abuse and exploitation this year, (b)how many cases of the ones reported have been successfully prosecuted resulting in convictions, (c)why the police have refused to arrest Fr. Kizito who is alleged to have sexually abused children in this City, even after a report was made to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) on the 5th of June, 2009, (d)could the Minister also clarify why the said Fr. Kizito is accorded police security, instead of actually being arrested, arraigned in court and prosecuted? (e)could the Minister explain what proactive measures the police are taking to equip the police to deal with such cases because they do not seem to have competence to deal with such cases? Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
