I have been having briefs on the military and no military officer has been caught because he has been accused of shooting somebody.

“The police are investigating it so if there is any military man who has been identified as shooting, the police will investigate and he will be dealt with,” he indicated to the committee..

He also expressed condolence to families who lost their relatives in the violence.

“We must express condolence to the families and ensure that it does not happen again,” he added.
