    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to also join my colleagues, the Hon. Senators in condemning the threat very strongly. Nobody has a right to threaten somebody else and talk about somebody else’s life. No matter what one person says or does because there are channels if one wants to put a case against somebody, one can always go to court. To threaten another life is wrong and criminal in its nature. I wonder why we need another law for cyber crime. Any crime is a crime. The laws we have should be sufficient to charge anybody in court. I know Sen. Hassan very well and I think he knows that. I took him back to university when I was an Assistant Minister for Education when he had been thrown out. He also worked closely with me and told me when he wanted to join the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights. I know his passion for defending other people, especially those he feels are downtrodden. Sometimes some people might see that he has gone out of the way, but that is no reason to threaten anyone. From what I know, I do not think Sen. Hassan has an evil mind. I think the people charged with legal action; the prosecutor should take action against those people who have threatened the life of another individual because apparently they are known.

You cannot start threatening a Senator or a Member of Parliament in order to The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
