"content": "On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, is it in order for the Assistant Minister to stand before this House and say that the reason and justification for referring to a Kenyan as a known and notorious criminal is because bonds were found on this person? We know that bonds are not evidence of crime, but evidence of a case going on in court. Is he suggesting that when a Kenyan is charged and before a court of law finds him or her guilty or not guilty, the Government or the police come to the conclusion that he is a notorious criminal? Is it in order for the him to shape the burden of proof and associate a person who is merely facing a criminal charge with the commission of crime; and then go on to say that he even knows that he was a victim of mob justice and then seek to justify that they have sought an inquest to legitimize what he is telling the House, that this is a known and notorious criminal? The only thesis they had is that they had possession of bonds in his pockets. Is this in order?"
