Considering that our Attorney-General is one of the very reputed lawyers in constitutional matters, and is also a university professor. I would like to congratulate him. I would like to draw his attention to Chapter 4 of the Constitution about the Bill of Rights; Article 21(1) grants individual rights and says that: “It is the fundamental duty of the State and every State organ to observe, respect, protect, promote and fulfill the rights and fundamental freedoms in the Bill of Rights”. Could the Attorney-General inform the House when we should expect to get justice given to Joel Mbugua and the many others who are languishing in prison under similar circumstances?"}
