    "content": "Our investigators, prosecutors and courts have on the whole not responded adequately and also the Executive has not shown sufficient will over the years, not just this time, to respond to election-related violence. We are therefore, as a Government and following the recommendations of the Waki Commission, seeking to expand space in our Constitution so that we are able to set up a Special Tribunal; a tribunal in the sense of a criminal court with three distinct departments. These are investigatory, prosecutorial and a court to determine those matters. So, we are setting up a special system outside our normal system. Those who are saying they have no faith in our justice system, this will not be our normal justice system. It is a special system where a prosecutor will be hired from the international pool. It is where a special registrar and investigator will be hired and where the tribunal and the special magistrate will be manned by people selected through a different process."
