    "content": "Since 1986, no death-row convict has been executed. In our Kenyan laws, there is provision for somebody to be sentenced to death. Even when the sentence has been passed and all mechanisms have been exhausted on the fate of that person, those people are just kept in prison. There is no execution of death sentence in this country. Therefore, there is need for this House to give direction and if need be, amend the laws. I believe that the death sentence is still relevant in Kenya. If you do not have it at all, people will become very bold. It is similar to the case of robbery with violence and murder suspects being released on bail as the current Constitution provides. The Constitution also provides that even suspects of terrorism should be released on bail. This has a bearing on the crime wave in the country."
