    "content": "I hope that the Legal Aid Bill that we are passing today will not only deal with murder cases but also robbery with violence. Most importantly, it will deal with cases of attempted robbery with violence. We have an attempted robbery with violence crime, which is not a successful robbery but one is tried. Even just the attempt to steal can attract the death penalty. That would require that persons going to be subjected to the death penalty receive legal aid so that they can have fair trials. They should be provided with lawyers at the State’s expense to ensure that such trials proceed as they should because we, indeed, need to decry the rate of robbery in our society. We have to deal with robbers who are robbing honest citizens. However, as we deal with the robbers, we must also ensure that they get fair trial as the country is fighting crime. The Legal Aid Bill will sort out that problem."
