Head Transplant & 2 Headed Baby

Hi
Recently a parasitic head was removed succesfully from a two headed baby.
The parasitic head can blink and smile.

This is the 9th recorded case in the world.

If in the future, the head transplant research had advanced, is it possible to transplat the head to a donor body from cadaver donor / dead baby?
Can the parasitic head survive with the new body?

If the parasitic head have a working brain, is the separation operation a murder?
