    "content": "Lastly, there is something that happens very often in the villages and even in towns with regard to sexual offence. When somebody is found to have defiled a minor, some people engage in out of court negotiations. The beneficiaries are mostly caretakers, neighbours or parents. This does not bring justice to the person who has been defiled. By proposing that all forms of sexual abuse be handled by proper courts, this will ensure that, at least, all the victims have been properly taken care of. Those people who own schools or managers of schools or, indeed, Teachers Service Commission (TSC) will be compelled by this law to ensure that everyone who seeks employment in such positions as teachers or caretakers must produce certificate of clearance. They should show that they have not in the past engaged in any indecent acts of sexual violence or sexual abuse against minors or any other person. This will guard against the temptation of people employing individuals and trusting them with taking care of children, yet they abuse them."
