    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This is a good Bill, but I would like to flag out the dangers in Bill. The first danger is in the proposed amendment to Chapter 75 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CPC). There have been many complaints that the courts have been releasing people who ought to be in custody pending the determination of a criminal trial. Before the enactment of the new Constitution there were some offences which did not allow an accused person the right to bail. Those were capital offences that included murder, robbery with violence and treason. So, the police brought this proposed amendment with a view to curing that anomaly."
