    "content": "All the three reported cases are under investigation by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI). The circumstances surrounding the abduction is not yet known. The Government is not aware of the disappearance of Mr Mohamed Buya Shangalow. The family members are, therefore, advised to report the disappearance at their nearest police station to allow commencement of investigation. The National Police Service is employing every measure to establish the whereabouts of the reported missing persons. The other issue is the measures the Government has put in place to ensure that counter- terrorism initiatives are carried out in strict compliance with the law and international human rights standards. The Government has taken the following measures: 1. Briefing officers on proper conduct wherever they are deployed on duty. 2. Strict supervision of officers by immediate commanders while performing their duties. 3. Taking both criminal and disciplinary action against any officer found culpable of breaking the law. 4. Encouraging civilians to report any misconduct of the police through the National Police Service toll-free number, FichuakwaDCI, as well as oversight authorities such as the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) and the Internal Affairs Unit. Further, I reiterate that the Government has no policy on abduction. Any officer implicated in such vice will individually be held accountable for their actions. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to respond."
