    "content": "Concerning the other five Kenyans who were arrested in Kenya and surrendered to the Ugandan Government, that should not have happened because we have our own police. We have our police system. We have our own courts system. They should have been arrested and accorded their rights of representation. That has not happened. Therefore, it is important that, as we continue to fight terrorism and any other threat, basic human rights of our people should not be denied. It is almost clear from the Report that there was no proper co-ordination when those people were arrested and taken to Uganda. That, in my view, should not have been the position and the Government - particularly the departments that were involved - should be held accountable so that, that becomes a lesson to other heads of government departments. Kenyans are now in a free independent country and there should be no threat as we try to address national security matters of this country."
