    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the subject of this Statement is the loss of life of a police officer; a Kenyan at the prime of his life, who has left behind young children, a widow and relatives who depended on him and whose expectations and hopes have now been shattered. This response from a very effective Chairman, actually says that the deceased is believed to have shot himself with a rifle and the cause of death found to be gunshot wounds on the chest and head. From this answer, two gunshots were fired; one which went through the roof, leaving behind a mark on the iron sheet. The second hit the deceased’s chest, passing through his body, hitting the armory steel box and hitting the wall. Mr. Speaker, Sir, is the respected Chair of the Committee aware that the pathologist who carried out the postmortem examination actually confirmed to the family that this officer was shot at and killed? Secondly, if you look at the postmortem examination, you will notice that the injuries were caused by a distant gunshot which caused an entry wound between the left eye and nasal ridge. Is he sure that actually this man shot himself? Secondly, what position could the deceased person have taken in order to shoot himself? How possible is it for a person who wants to commit suicide to fire one shot to the roof of the house and a second one down to his head, his left eye, nose and down to the chest?"
