    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, speaking as a lawyer, I want to advise my friend, who is a veterinary doctor, that the mere fact that the Attorney-General chose to enter a nolleprosequi does not, as the colleague next to you will agree, necessarily mean that those officers were actually innocent. What it means is that there was need in the national interest and other issues considering the circumstances, either for lack of evidence, for the Attorney-General decided, in his wisdom, to enter a nolle prosequi . I want to assure Dr. Monda that we are now looking at these cases individually. It may mean that some of them will be redeployed with the Public Service. In the wake of that strike, I promised this House that we will reform the prisons service. Indeed, we are very serious about that. For instance, one of the nine officers, a Mr. Isaac Odongo, was actually on an extended one year contract after his contract had expired. Such a gentleman will now have retired because his contract had expired."
