Human rights activist Boniface Mwangi has advised fugitive cop Caroline Kangogo to surrender to a mainstream media house so as to save her life.
"If you know Caroline Kangoho whereabouts tell her to surrender herself to any mainstream media house. She can give her story without self-incriminating or to simply surrender and ensure the hit squads formed to track her down won’t murder her before she gets her day in court, " Mwangi wrote on Twitter.
This was in response to the headline on a local daily which stated that commandos had been drafted to a multi-agency team tasked with hunting down the police officer who has gone rogue killing two men.

The task force has roped in members of Kenya's armed forces as detectives attempt to capture one of their own who has been on the run for days.
The whereabouts of the suspected murderer have remained a mystery with reports in the media differing on her location.
Her phone signals hint at an individual moneyed enough to remain on the run for a while as she allegedly made her way to six counties in a four-day period last week.
A source in the police service has now revealed to the Nation that Corporal Kangogo may actually be under the protection of senior police officers.
"Some of the people she has been communicating with are senior officers and some dangerous criminals who are being pursued by the police," Nakuru County Criminal Investigations Officer Anthony Sunguti told the Nation.
The search for Kangogo is now over a week old with the body of Constable John Ogweno having been discovered on Monday, June 5th.
