    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Government calls upon anyone who has information that can lead to the arrest of the perpetrators of those heinous acts to avail the same to any police station in the country and the same shall be treated with confidence. Following the 11th July 2010 Kampala bombings which claimed 76 lives and left 96 other persons with serious injuries, joint investigations conducted by the Kenya and Uganda law enforcement officers added other credible evidence which implicated some Kenyan suspects. The initial breakthrough in this investigation was based on technical telephone analysis of the mobile handset from the un-exploded device. The handset had an international mobile equipment identification number. The number is 351528042707070. The technical analysis of that handset revealed previous telephone linkages that led to the arrest of the following persons in Kenya:- One, Idriss Magondu alias Christopher Magondu; two, Hussein Hassan Agade; three, Mohammed Ahmed Suleiman; four, Mohammed Adan and five, Yaya Suleiman Mbuthia. From the foregoing, it is evident that the five Kenyans who were handed over to Uganda authorities were suspected to be connected to the Kampala attack. Kenya domesticated the treaty for the establishment of the East African Community (EAC) when Parliament passed the treaty for establishment of EAC Act in the year 2000. There are certain provisions in the said treaty that provide for among others, enhanced co-operation between partner states in the following areas:- One, in handling of cross border crime; two, in the provision of mutual assistance in criminal matters; three, arrest and repatriation of fugitive offenders; four, exchange of criminal intelligence and other security information for combating criminal activities; five, enhancement of joint operations including hot pursuit of criminals and joint patrols to promote border security and six, review of regional security particularly on the threat of terrorism and in the formulation of security measures to combat terrorism."
