• 18 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is dated, 1st February, 2010 by Judge R.V.P Wendo. So, the court wants to wait until the determination of the appeal case and criminal case which involves these people. I wish to table the same for the hon. Member to peruse. view
• 18 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is the truth of the matter. view
• 18 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) The police conducted investigations and found out that:- (1) The relatives of the deceased had been negotiating with the management of Petma Restaurant for compensation and only reported to police after failing to agree as neither the management nor the relatives reported the incident to the police until after four months; that was on 10th November, 2009. (2) Negligence on the part of the deceased can be attributed to the cause of his death as he was attempting to refill the burners when they were already lit. This can be attested by ... view
• 18 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I did mention here that Ayugi’s family was trying to negotiate with the proprietor of Petma Restaurant. When they failed to agree, four months later, they then reported the matter to the police. view
• 18 May 2011 in National Assembly: By the time the police went to the restaurant to check whether there were facilities such as a fire extinguisher and the exits, they found that there were fire extinguishers and an exit. So, if they had reported this matter immediately, we would have known whether there was any existence of the fire extinguisher equipment and an exit. After four months and we find those equipment already in use, it becomes very difficult for us to blame the management of the restaurant. That is why I was suggesting that the hon. Member can take this case to court in order ... view
• 18 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, when investigations were done, we found the existence of fire extinguishers. We also found that there was an exit. The only thing which we are not aware of is whether they were done after the incident. But from the look of things, the investigation report says that those required regulations were in existence. view
• 18 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I did mention here that the investigations were done exhaustively. Fire extinguisher equipment and fire exit routes were found to be in existence. They were existing by the time we went for the investigation. Although we are reprimanding the deceased, Mr. Ayugi, I would request that the family members should engage the court for purposes of compensation. Otherwise, according to the report which we have there is an existence of fire equipment and exit routes. view
• 18 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the workers were interviewed together with the proprietor of Petma Restaurant. If you go deeper into this matter and take it to court, you will be able to know who was wrong at that particular time in order for the family to get compensation. view
• 17 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, indeed, I had answered this Question. What is remaining is that I was tasked to have investigations carried out to establish whether we have people being trained in musketry, whether we have AP officers on the farm and whether the police officers were denied entry into the ranch. Those are some of the issues on which I have a report, and on which I wanted to report what the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) officers’ investigations have come up with. I just want to give my friend, hon. K. Kilonzo, the benefit of the doubt and confirm that ... view
• 17 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, my officers have done a wonderful job. If the Chair allows me to report their findings, I will go ahead and give the report. I can then take supplementary questions from those hon. Members who may be interested. So, if you allow me, I am ready to give the findings of the investigations. Otherwise, there is nothing as at now, which bars me from giving the report on the issues that were raised by hon. Karua. view
