The residents said hey were willing to help the police launch a man hunts for the suspects.

“We know this is all about land inheritance," said Ezekiel Rop, a resident.

"We know the deceased well and allegations of him being a witch doctor are mere cover-ups for their greedy actions,” added Rop.

According to the suspects, the deceased had bewitched their children and thus they stubbed him to death.

The suspects then fled after the incident and their whereabouts remain unknown.

The residents want speedy investigations so that the suspects are brought to justice.

“We have had police conducting investigations that never yield any fruits or justice," said John Okoyo, a resident.

"This matter is clear and needs no investigations. The police should take swift action,” he added.
