15 Nov 2011 in National Assembly:
The circumstances surrounding the death of Hillary Omondi Guya are very sad. I had the opportunity to attend the funeral and interview witnesses. This afternoon, I have shared with the Assistant Minister an affidavit sworn by Joel Aduma Achuth on 27th October, 2011 together with the postmortem report prepared by Dr. Dickson Muchana Mwaludindi on 1st November, 2011. The postmortem report says that the cause of death was extensive soft tissue injuries and torture is a strong possibility. I wish to table this postmortem report. I also wish to table before the House the affidavit sworn by Joel Aduma Achuth.

Paragraph five of that affidavit says:- “While Hillary was in custody, he complained of acute stomachache and was rushed to Patanisho Hospital for treatment where he died while undergoing treatment”. Paragraph six says that:- “When Joel Aduma inquired at the Patanisho Hospital, he was informed by the persons who were on duty that when Hillary was brought by the police, he had visible injuries on the body, but upon examination, he was found to be dead and they declined to do anything on the body and released the body to the police to take it away”.

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. You have heard the Assistant Minister ask that I should declare my interest. Although it went in passing, I wish to state categorically that one, Hillary Omondi Guya is my constituent. Two, I am a Commissioner for Oaths under the Oaths Authority Declarations Act and I commissioned the affidavit after I interviewed the respondent and all that in view, is properly in order.

15 Nov 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, considering the fact that in this case we have got the issue of the police being asked to investigate the police, could the Assistant Minister kindly confirm that the two complainants the police said have made reports against Hillary Omondi and Mwania have recorded statements? If they have, what is the outcome of the police investigations? Will an inquest be held or the file will be closed like that?
