"content": "This is something that we, as leaders and representatives of the people, should not tolerate. If we were to look at the weakness surrounding the law, you can never send a thief to catch a thief, it cannot happen. Anytime this happens, a comrade, a colleague of a policeman is the one who will investigate, conduct the arrest and lead the prosecution in court. I think that system has failed. I urge the Chairperson of the Committee - my good friend Sen. Cherargei - to consider reforms within the law so that we create a totally independent investigative authority that can deal with the issues of extra-judicial killings within the police force. Without that, it will always be a case of brother trying to cover brother; sister trying to cover sister. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
