    "content": "fine not exceeding five hundred thousand shillings or a term of imprisonment not exceeding two years, or to both”. The reason we are proposing amendments to Clause 29(7) is because whenever there is a complaint by a person who has been detained, who is being held in custody or in prison, concerning, may be, issues of being mishandled by either the prison warders or by the police, when that complaint is resolved by the Cabinet Secretary, his or her decision should not be final. It should still be appealable. These are administrative actions, which are supervised by the High Court. The law should not provide the decisions of the Cabinet Secretary to be final. It should be subject to be canvassed further if the detained or imprisoned person is dissatisfied with the decision of the Cabinet Secretary. So, we propose that “whose decision shall be final” be deleted."
