    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I really empathise and sympathise with the situation of the family. In fact, the issues they have raised are pertinent. However, we sat as a Committee and engaged the Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs when the matter was brought to us. On the issues that Hon. Musau is raising, indeed the family has not had their share of justice. We found out that they have filed a case in New York which is ongoing. It is only fair if the Hon. Member acquaints himself with the contents of the case. So, he can assist the family to get justice from that end. The deceased had a will in which he stated that in the event he passes on, he should be cremated. The Government of Kenya is very keen on issues concerning people who pass on, outside its jurisdiction. Our embassies have been very proactive at helping families. They always help them to transport their deceased to where they will be buried. For now, there is a will stating what he wanted to be cremated once he passed on. There is nothing much the Government can do."
