    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, a contingent of officers from the Rural Border Patrol Unit, Regular Police, General Service Unit (GSU) and the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) were subsequently dispatched to pursue the militia where the footprints were traced up to the border between Kenya and Somalia and, therefore, KDF took over the search. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, following the incident, the respective family members were informed of the development through the respective District Administration Police Commanders (DAPS). Thereafter, on 15th June, 2013, the respective next of kin were informed in writing of the incident and assured that the Government is employing all necessary efforts to make sure that officers are brought back safely. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, on 29th June, 2013 and 21st June, 2013, senior police officers from the AP Headquarters visited the Nyeri and Bomet homes of the respective two officers. It has been agreed that the immediate dependants should be paid Kshs7,000 monthly out of the salaries of the abducted officers. This was communicated to the Co- operative Bank through a letter dated 30th August, 2013; a copy of which is hereby enclosed. In addition, the two families have been regularly brought up to date on the matter by the AP Department. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, lastly, I want to take this opportunity to assure Kenyans and in particular the affected family members that the Government is committed to ensure that the officers are released from Somalia. Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. DEMOLITION OF BUILDINGS AND OTHER STRUCTURES ALONG THE SOUTHERN BYPASS"
