    "content": "are undertaking within the Judiciary are, first and foremost, meant to ensure that we have a Judiciary that is fair, accessible and will not carry on the culture of impunity. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we also have reforms on the way in the Attorney- General’s Office in line with the provisions of the Constitution so that prosecution of those involved in the post-election violence, is undertaken. It is important to note that this does not in any way also remove the need for compensation for those who suffered because of our behavior prior and after the elections of 2007. In addition to that, this process is not quite devoid of politics. I want to read a paragraph from a document that was done by His Excellency the Ambassador, Mr. Michael Rannenberger. It was sent to Mr. Carson. It reads: “Providing support for witness protection will significantly improve the odds that the ICC would be able to indict several key suspects of post-election violence. Such indictments particularly, if they are public, would be a major blow to the culture of impunity and likely help alter the political dynamics in a positive way”. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a letter done by His Excellency the Ambassador of the United States, who is saying that in the event these names are read in public--- So, even the reading of the names in public by Ocampo was a thing that has been agreed upon outside the ICC. On top of that, there was the intention of altering the political dynamics in this country."
