I support this amendment considering that now we are allowing the Cabinet Secretary, by regulation, to determine the number of persons that are supposed to be accommodated within each given space. I think it is a good amendment. I want to just point out that in Machakos Police Station recently or about a year ago, there was a case where individuals had been put in with hardcore criminals and one of them pulled out a gun. This will go a long way in ensuring that people who are held for minor offences like traffic offences, are not subjected to the harsh realities of criminal life. Therefore, so I support."}
