The other side is where people are 6 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES July 25, 2007 allowed to fish. That is the Karuki area. Since there is no marker in the dam - there is no line which divides the two - it is difficult for my fishermen from Gachoka to know when they cross by one inch to the Mwea National Reserve. As a result, where they have been followed, the following four people have died: Mary Mbocho, Wilfred Njeru, the sons of a very good supporter of mine called Mwaniki King'oroti and Mathatha Kangwewe. They died as a result of crossing the imaginary line between the national reserve and Karuki. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when will the Minister put a clear dividing line in the water, so that my people could know when they are doing an illegal activity?"}
