"content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish to make a statement regarding the intimidation of the Headmistress of Oshwal School by the Chairman of the Hindu Council of Kenya, Mr. Nitin Malde. Hon. Speaker, the genesis of the matter relates to a case of a six-year old child one Ms. Alika who was born slightly weaker than her twin sister. The child was enrolled in Oshwal School but could not cope with the pace of other children and so she was withdrawn under unclear circumstances. Later, it was established by the headmistress that the child was allegedly withdrawn from the school by the school management because of her state of health attributed to beating from her parents. The headmistress pursued the matter through the school board but no action was taken prompting her to report the matter to the Childrenās Department and the police. The result of this was acts of intimidation from the Chairman of the Hindu Council of Kenya, Mr. Nitin Malde, who threatened to shut down the school and cause imprisonment of the headmistress as he claims that he is a personal friend to the President of the Republic of Kenya. I, therefore, beseech this House to cause the Cabinet Secretary for Internal Security and Co-ordination of National Government as well as the House Committee on Administration and The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
