If the defamed person demands the Hadd punishment for defamation and subsequently dies, to whom does the right of enforcement pass?

Primary text

If the victim demanded the punishment before death, the right passes exclusively to the male paternal relatives (Asabat) through lineage, excluding others. This restriction is due to the nature of the right, which is intended to repel dishonor, thus it is reserved for the Asabat, similar to the guardianship in marriage (Wilayat al-Nikah). If the Asabat establish the right, they possess the authority to enforce it.
