    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, following this development, the Zambian officials were ordered to remove the three deportees from JKIA, since the requisite 24 hours within which such deportees should be removed from JKIA had effectively elapsed. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in consultation with the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security and the Department of Immigration got together and invoked the Carriers Liability as stipulated under Section 9 of the Immigration Act, Cap.172, Laws of Kenya. We notified the Kenya Airways to return the deportees back to Lusaka with the next flight available. At no time were the passengers confined in immigration custody, since they were transit passengers like any other. Neither were they treated in an inhuman manner. Because the passengers had declined to go to Mogadishu, we then put them on the next flight which was due to depart Nairobi on 24th February 2011. So, they were removed from JKIA as a result of this. As I am speaking to you, we make an assumption that they are actually in Lusaka. It can be therefore confirmed to this House that the three Somalis were removed from JKIA as indicated by the attached copies of the flight manifest and the boarding passes which I shall table."
