Chairperson, I want to put it on record that three days before the sitting, the Minister of State Security or any official in my department had not beaten any person.
If the member has been beaten by any officer from my department or by me, there are law-enforcement agencies, and there is a judiciary. The member has a right to recourse, but the member cannot give a statement that is factually incorrect to the country. I would request an apology because our people - including me - have never beaten anybody here. I thank you. [Applause.]
