Cheruiyot Kirui's body removal from Mount Everest might cost Kshs XXXXXXXXX or more. In 1984, two Nepalese hikers passed on and retrieving their bodies took a significant amount of time and expense. Retrieving bodies from Mt Everest is a dangerous, expensive, and torturous endeavor

Final repatriation costs can reach tens of thousands of dollars, sometimes around $XXXXXX (approximately Sh9 million), and can come with a fatal price itself.

That is why more than XXX bodies lie on Mount Everest. The bodies are intact due to extreme cold temperatures, therefore they can't decompose. 

Most families that have lost their loved ones to Mt Everest have held memorial services at home and left their kins to rest on the mountain. This is a tragedy nearly all affected families can't forget. It is scary, very scary.
