The family of a brutally murdered Mpopoma are demanding a cool 45 herd of cattle before burying the slain Miriam Takavingofa Nyoni.
Miriam Takavingofa Nyoni was chopped to death with a machete in front of her 7 year old child on Monday by her husband Goodman Nyoni.
Family spokesperson, Simplicious Chikoko said they have tabled a demand of 45 beast and $3000.
However, he said they would accept half of the cattle in order to kick start burial arrangements for Miriam.
However, Nyoni's family is said to be un-cooperative.
"We are not just going to bury her and pretend everything is in order. Miriam's fingers is still missing."
"We need 45 cattle and at least $3 000 from Nyoni family. No burying would take place before all conditions meet," said Chikoko.
Nyoni is still under police guard at Mpilo Central Hospital.
Before she died she had approached the courts to issue summons against her husband's lover identified as Sikhulile Ngwenya, of 2826 Nketa 7, demanding adultery damages of $2 000.
