    "content": "C, Cube Two. The incident was reported at the Capitol Hill Police Station. The Homicide Investigation Bureau, alongside the forensic team from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) laboratory, were called in to process the crime scene. The deceased was found to have sustained a deep cut on the throat, and the beddings were heavily soaked with blood. The cube contained two beds, meaning the victim shared the space with another patient. Blood droplets were observed on the floor, trailing from the deceased’s bed towards the adjacent patient’s bed. The suspected blood traces collected from the floor, crocks, kitchen knife and fingernails were swabbed for forensic analysis and submitted to the Government Chemist in Nairobi on 7th February 2025. The CCTV footage from Ward 7B was retrieved for further review. Statements were recorded from key witnesses: nurses on duty, security personnel, a cleaner and one of the patients in the same ward. On 25th February 2025, analysis results confirmed that the Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) profile generated from the blood stains on both the knife and floor swabs matched the DNA profile of the deceased. However, the fingernail clippings did not yield any foreign DNA profile, and the swabs from the crocks contained only lightly stained human blood. After the investigation, the file will be forwarded to the Office of DPP for review and further direction. Hon. Temporary Speaker, on the actions being taken to ensure the perpetrator of the crime is arrested and prosecuted, I want to report that the investigations are ongoing. Once finalised, any persons found culpable will be arraigned before Court. The following measures are being taken to enhance security in health care facilities: 1. Health facilities are encouraged to formulate safety and security regulations. 2. Installation of CCTV cameras and security scanners in health care facilities. 3. Police have enhanced security in medical facilities, and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) is fast-tracking an investigation into the killing of the late Gilbert Kinyua. 4. Finally, management, staff, and patients are urged to share critical information via the Fichua Kwa DCI toll-free hotline 0800722203, which guarantees confidentiality and the reporter's safety. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I beg to respond."
