The family now wants the government to search for the head of their kin and have vowed not to bury his body until his head is found. His burial was slated for Friday but the family refused to collect his body for burial insisting that the head must first be found. Mr Elijah Kimutai, 60, said it is against the Kalenjin traditions to bury a body without the head. We can't bury him without the head," said Mr Emmanuel Kiplangat who is the man’s brother. "A ram would be slaughtered to cleanse and allow the family to bury their kin if his head will not be found,” said Mzee Tangus.
