In the trending video, a voice could be heard in the background explaining why the burial did not take place as scheduled.

“They didn’t later bury Destiny Boy today. They took his body to the mortuary, and when they got there, they were trying to remove the gold in his teeth.

One is on the left, the other is on the right. They are trying to remove it before they embalm his body,” the voice said.
