"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this Petition is timely. We, as a country, require answers to what has really been happening in the Gulf country. This will help us respond to some of these issues which have brought a lot of anxiety about Saudi Arabia because it is a country that calls itself an Islamic State. We need to get to the heart of it. In addition, what bothers me most about the treatment of domestic workers in Saudi Arabia is if someone is breaking the law, say, an employer has thrown a Kenyan domestic worker out of a window and she has passed on. If this person was violated or tortured in a manner that is against the Islamic Sharia, why is there no action being taken domestically in Saudi Arabia against those who perpetrate these types of crimes? As we interrogate these issues to know who the unscrupulous agents are, we must also find ways and means to ensure that we compel the Government of Saudi Arabia to investigate instances of murder. In addition to the investigation, those people are punished as per the law in Saudi Arabia. In fact, those who have killed, Islamic law requires nothing else, but a beheading. Therefore, we want to see action being taken on all those who have killed Kenyan citizens or any other citizens of this world on account of impunity. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes"
