"content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have apologized for coming in late. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you are aware that this Question had already been dealt with. I have perused the papers in this particular file, and seen that the officer was demoted on 5th October 2010 from Chief Inspector of Police to Inspector of Police after he appeared before Orderly Room proceedings at the District Commissionerâs (DC) office, Thika West, on 20th September. Procedurally, if the officer felt aggrieved by the action taken against him, he should have appealed to the Commandant of the Administration Police for reconsideration. So far, there is no correspondence at all, showing that he has appealed. However, this can be as a result of the procedure which is supposed to be followed by the officer; he is required to appeal through his seniors. So, the same seniors who demoted him would not easily recommend his appeal. In that circumstance, I would request my friend, the Questioner, to give me a copy of his appeal, so that it can be considered by the disciplinary committee, which exists. I need to assist this young Member of Parliament from Juja."
