    "content": "He has captured it right. The only part that is not accurate, is that initially, and indeed at the time of going there, I thought that there had been a child. However, it turned out that there were all five male adults of different ages. The Inspector General of Police spoke in broad daylight to the citizens, media and the country that any police officer who was involved in those killings will carry their own cross. I thought that was a good sign from him, meaning that the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) was going to swing into action and by now, we would have known the identity of those officers and what action has been taken. It is now more than three weeks, nearly a month, since that incident happened yet nothing has been said from the investigative agencies. I thought the practice is that in such a matter of great national concern, by now the country would have been updated, at least by IPOA, of the status of investigations and when the citizens will get justice. Secondly and most importantly, Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is a particular Administration Officer, a Mr. Jubat, if I am not wrong, whose name was profusely mentioned by the citizens. He was alleged to have participated in organising and leading this particular exercise. I thought by now the Ministry of Interior and National Administration would equally have updated the country on what disciplinary action has been taken against that particular officer. Transferring him is not a solution. If you transfer an administration officer who has led an exercise such as this and that has led to the death of citizens, basically you are sending him to go and repeat the same kind of killings in another part of the country. That cannot be acceptable. Therefore, I hope, that when the answers come, we will be told also of what will have happened to this particular officer and the status of investigations---"
