    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I agree with hon. Mbau that, indeed, the loss of the young man is regrettable. It is something that should not have happened and we have started investigations. One of the reasons we have started these investigations is to know in a detailed manner why the police reached the extent of using the firearms. The police could have overreacted, but this is partly due to the fact that, in the recent times, police officers have been attacked and many of them fatally wounded for failure to take early action in their self-defence. The information we have is that the police officer was acting in self-defence. But with further investigations, we will get to know how far that was. What is even more regrettable is that they were acting on misinformation. It is true that, that date was for celebrations and, indeed, the group of youths that was confronted was not that of the thugs that had been reported. As a matter of fact, we have established that Mr. Munene’s vehicle was not at any time stoned as had been reported. So, the matter is regrettable."
