4. the possibility of the Government to meet the medical costs incurred by the said victim and compensation for unfair arrest. The Cabinet Secretary has written a Statement and wishes to state as follows. In May, 2014, the DCIO, Kitale, received information that a suspect, Mr. William Ng’oris, who was under police investigation, was involved in commission of various crimes, including robbery and an assault in Kwanza Division of Trans Nzoia County. Among the crimes suspected to have been committed by the suspect was the assault of Salome Nyambura, who was grievously shot with an arrow on the head while ...

examined by the doctor who prescribed some painkillers and allowed him to go back to the cells, where he was booked vide OB No.50/2/6/2014. Although after further investigation the police could not gather sufficient evidence to charge the suspect, it was apparent that he was instrumental in the commission of various robberies within Chepchoina and its environs. It was, therefore, found necessary to take the suspect before court and bind him to keep peace under Section 43(1) as read together with Section 46(a),(c) and (d) of the Criminal Procedure Code before the Chief Magistrate’s Court in Kitale in a miscellaneous ...

Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I think I need to recognise the fact that there was some mistake in claiming that this is a deceased person. That is wrong. We need to apologise to William for that error. I do not know where they got the idea that he is already dead from. So, we need actually to apologise; that is wishful thinking that somebody is dead, yet he is alive. So, through the Member I wish to apologise for that particular error.

Hon. Deputy Speaker, thirdly, I am not aware that this particular person was locked in for more than 24 hours. It is not in my Statement. I think he was taken to court. When they reached the court there was not enough evidence but the police are still claiming that they have some particular information that William had committed some crime, although they do not have enough evidence. Normally when this kind of incident happens people are bonded to keep peace, and if they commit more crimes then they are arrested again.

On the issue of medical attention for him, I think he was taken to a doctor who may have found that he was not really sick and that was why he was given pain killers. Maybe he was not seriously sick. That is subject to the doctor examining him even further to ascertain whether he has any ailments. In the mean time that is the position, but I think we can pursue it further as a Committee.
