Kenyans online are calling for the arrest of a gun-toting woman whose pictures have gone viral on social media.

In one of the photos, the woman is pictured holding a rifle inside what appears to be sparsely furnished room.

The woman, who goes by the name Everline Kemunto on Facebook, has even updated that particular photo as her profile picture.

In another photo, which she has uploaded on Facebook, the woman is pictured wearing a police cap while dressed in civilian clothes.

The emergence of these photos have come at a time when the Kenyan government is working tirelessly to regulate the use of firearms.

Last week, a Nairobi-based lawyer, Assa Nyakundi, was arrested for shooting his son inside his vehicle.
