The Samoa Observer reported the Ministry of Justice confirming the request was granted to the Satapuala Village Council.
The family up for removal is alleged to have owned a marijuana farm and suspects have been charged with cultivation of narcotics in connection to the brutal murder of 15-year-old earlier this month.
The teen, Uili Uili, was found dead from severe head injuries which also uncovered a marijuana plantation with a street value of nearly $US40,000.
Papali'i also said the Village Council would need to pay a priority fee as well.
