    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is one case where we are grateful as a country that we now have police reforms and we have a law creating an independent oversight body over the police, because what the Assistant Minister has stated to this House is at variance with what was on the ground. This is because the firearm in question was found in the hands of a suspect, but the Assistant Minister has said that, that firearm was dispossessed from an officer who was on the ground, which is totally at variance with what was on the ground. Because this was a case where the police were supposed to investigate themselves and the people of Muroki, who recovered the firearm, refused to hand it over to the same police. Could the Assistant Minister tell the House whether there has been an independent team to investigate this incident, because there was a death? Has there been an inquest into this death? Was there an independent team that was dispatched to Kitale to investigate this case? Apart from that, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we want to tell the Government that insecurity in Trans Nzoia is a matter of great concern. What has the Assistant Minister done to ensure that we have a police station in Saboti and Kiminini divisions where recent deaths have increased and robberies continue to take place? Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir."
