    "content": "One of the things that shocks me about our criminal justice system is this idea of arresting people and then after two or three months, you release them and say there was no evidence; or you rush to court and say, we have not even recorded any statement from the suspect. By the time, you are arresting somebody at the level of a former Cabinet Secretary, for example, hon. Echesa, Sen. Malalah or hon. Gikaria who is the Chair of the Committee on Energy; you should at least have recorded a statement from that person or sought for the support and direction of the DPP. It is ridiculous to arrest someone then release them without telling them what their crime is. We want to know the truth. It should not stop at what the Chairperson of the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights has done. It should not just be a Statement where we express our outrage. The Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights has three senior members in the Kenyan Bar. They should establish what happened in that situation and it should be an example on how law enforcement will be conducted in this country. I have seen our friends, in the Minority side, getting worried that we might be targeting their friend, who is aJubilee Cabinet Secretary (CS)."
