    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I will go straight, in the interest of time, to the Statement. On 11th February, 2014, at about 1.00 p.m. police officers who were on patrol received information that there were three suspicious persons who were planning to commit crime within that particular area. When those officers confronted the suspects and ordered them to surrender, two of them ran away in different directions while the third one drew a pistol prompting the officers to shoot him thus sustaining gunshot wounds. The officers recovered a homemade gun from the suspect with two rounds of ammunition of 9 millimeter caliber. Thereafter, the officers called the Deputy OCS, Jogoo Police Station who visited the scene and contrary to the hon. Member’s allegation, assisted the wounded suspect to Kenyatta National Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival. The incident was booked at Jogoo Police Station as OB No.17 of 11th February, 2014 and subsequently an inquest file No.2/2014 was opened. Further, the homemade pistol and ammunition were later forwarded to the ballistics experts for examination. The examiner was of the opinion that the homemade gun and the ammunitions were firearm and ammunition respectively within the definitions under Firearms Act, Cap.114, Laws of Kenya. I have handed over the ballistics report to the hon. Member and it is signed by somebody called Mr. Alex Chirchir."
