    "content": "(e) On 27th January, 2016, members of the business community from Tala Township were violently dispersed by the police while demonstrating against the illegal hiking of business levies by the County Government of Machakos. (3) Clarify why on 29th January, 2016, which was a market day in Tala Township, more than 400 anti riot police officers were deployed in the township, which greatly inconvenienced market goers and caused great anxiety and fear amongst the residents. (4) Explain the action being taken against the officers from the Kenya Police Service (KPS) and other persons who have and are still violating the provisions of Article 37 of the Constitution by repeatedly denying the public their right to assemble, demonstrate, picket and present petitions to public authorities in a peaceful way. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have another request for statement. I do not know whether I should proceed."
