On Thursday, his widow Mary Wangari led a group of friends and relatives in demanding the arrest of the suspect before the burial could proceed. They also vowed that no burial will take place until the suspect is arraigned in court.
“We will not allow the funeral to take place until we get an explanation why the main suspect was released,” said the widow.

The deceased, a father of two and footballer in a local club, is said to have engaged in a scuffle with the suspect who claimed he was dating his wife before stabbing him to death.
