    "content": "are these police stations engendered? They do not even have women looking at the issues. When a girl reports that they have been raped or defiled, you find a clueless policeman seated there and asking her how she was raped, how she was touched and what was touched. We should have special units with two officers who should be trained on gender so that they can understand what a woman goes through when she reports a rape ordeal. These policemen do not care and we have a duty to ensure that they are trained. I am happy that the Ministry of Education, Research and Technology has been tasked by this Bill to ensure that our policemen are trained and well capacitated to handle issues of rape, defilement and be sensitive to our children so that they do not see it as a normal issue that should be sorted out within the community. We have many perverts in our society. For instance, you could be in a matatu or seated somewhere and you see a man looking very uncomfortable for lack of a better way of asking to feel your body. That is an offence. I am glad that Bill deals with those perverts. I want to thank Hon. (Ms.) Mutua and state that the fine of Kshs500, 000 is less. This Bill will address the increasing nature of defilement especially where I represent. I support."
