    "content": "for almost five days without the benefit of lawyers, which is provided for under the Constitution of our Republic. (4) Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also hope to seek from the Chairperson the nature of the charges which were preferred against those who were arrested and how many to date still face those charges. (5) Further, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want the Chairperson to confirm whether that raid was in contravention of Article 25(a) of the Constitution, which prohibits torture and all other forms of degrading treatment; and Article 49(1)(c), which touches on the rights of arrested persons. (6) Further, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want the Chairperson to reveal the whereabouts of one of those persons who was photographed in the media, one Mr. Hemed Salim Ahmed, who was arrested and last seen in the custody of police officers. Mr. Speaker, Sir, as an attendant to this question, I think Kenya has evolved to the point where forced disappearances is a crime under our Statutes. Therefore, any police officer or person who causes the disappearance of any person commits a crime."
