Msando on the other hand is believed to have been brutally murdered a few days to the August General election alongside his alleged girlfriend Caroline Ngumbu.

Speaking to BBC from New York while recalling the murder of Msando, Ms Akombe said: “I have never felt the kind of fear that I felt in my own country.”

She insisted that the death threats were anonymous mostly from political actors and protesters.

There have been inconsistencies in the police version of events leading to the macabre murder hence the unresolved murder a little over a year later.
