"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, what hon. Raila is saying is that he is, basically, disputing the information I have given. There is a difference between what he has said and what I have said. I did not say that there was a scuffle in the bar. I said that the robbers entered the bar, ransacked the customers who were there and shot one of them dead. They then walked out of the bar. As they were leaving, police officers were pursuing. They kept on shooting indiscriminately as they were running away from the police officers. I rely on the police for information and I have no reason to doubt the information they have given. They have given specific details of what happened. The same individuals that Mr. Raila is talking about are the same ones who were killed. The police have information about the operations of this gang. I have already given one incident where one gang member was killed. The others have gone underground. Police officers are still pursuing them and looking for them. It is not easy, in Kenya, to find a criminal who has gone underground. It takes time, but we are sure that the police will catch up with them. They are known, and specifically, the gang leader is well known. Several of them have been cleared in the same region; so, the police are doing something. The concern of the hon. Member is that the police have done nothing. What I have outlined here clearly shows that the police are doing everything in their power to ensure that the gang members are apprehended, and make sure that similar incidents do not take place again."
