• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you will remember that this Question was dealt with exhaustively by my substantive Minister. He was supposed to come and give the details of what was left of it. However, it looks like he has not reported. Could you give me some time so that I check where he is and report to the House? view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) On the night of 14th and 15th August, 2011, police officers from Kiambu Police Station, while on normal patrol duties within Kiambu Town, arrested the following patrons who were found at Sams Pavillion Bar at 1.30 a.m. in contravention of the requirements of the Alcoholic Drinks Control Act (No.4) of 2010. John Ndung’u Ngotho, Nicholas Wambua, Mary Wambui Mungi, John Muturi Kariuki - who is the deceased - Daniel Njihia Kamau and Stephen Mwangi Kariuki. They were all booked in the cells at Kiambu Police Station vide OB No.5 of 15th August, ... view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the postmortem report is from KNH and there is no way it can be doctored. It was done by a doctor from the national hospital in Kenya. So, it cannot be doctored. That will be unprofessional if, indeed, it was doctored. view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first of all, I think we should tread carefully while dealing with the loss of life of a professional. I have said clearly that there was a letter which was written by a doctor and I have tabled it. The postmortem report is here. I think he should have taken time to go through the postmortem report which I have tabled, other than just using guess work. When we are dealing with cases like this, it is always good to give your ears to the Minister because, number one, there is an inquiry already. We tried to ... view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I mentioned here that immediately after the death was reported, a murder case File No.211/3113/2011 was opened and investigations started. We were told by one of the fellows who was also in custody that two people, Moses Yieki ole Molel and James Mburu Wamuti, were the people who caused injuries to this particular fellow, who is the deceased. It looks as if the fellow was a sickling earlier on. His sickness was not caused by beatings by the fellow inmates. That was why in the morning the following day, he was rushed to Kiambu District Hospital; then ... view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, if you go through the documents which I have tabled, you will find that the doctor who was actually looking after him was the one who wrote the letter to KNH for the fellow to be admitted – this is the doctor from Kiambu District Hospital. I have a report of the postmortem. I am not an expert. I would have given this report to Dr. Khalwale and Dr. Monda to check whether it actually talks about anything--- view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is not a question of the police intimidating the ordinary citizens. Within Kiambu itself, we have a lot of problems of insecurity. In a place called Njuki within Karuri, Banana area, there is a lot of insecurity. The police must ask you where you are coming from in late hours. For Kenyans to sleep peacefully and without any problems, the police must patrol. When my police officers ask--- view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: I will never respond to that, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I mentioned here that yes, there was some negligence on the part of the police. First of all, they should not have taken this particular deceased person to the cells because he was drunk, where he was eventually beaten up by the inmates. I have so far charged four police officers. I have charged Noah Maiyo, the Officer Commanding Police Station (OCS), Kasudo Towett, Duty Officer, Japheth Mwania, Cells Sendry and Victor Barasa, the Report Officer as a result of negligence. view
