Murder of Muriel McKay

Common card · No. 212441

On 29 December 1969, Muriel Freda McKay, a 55‑year‑old Australian woman, was kidnapped in London in a case that became one of the United Kingdom's earliest murder convictions without a body. She was abducted after being mistaken for Anna Murdoch, the then‑wife of media proprietor Rupert Murdoch. McKay was married to Alick McKay (sometimes referred to as Alex), an executive at News Limited and Murdoch's deputy. Two Indo‑Trinidadian brothers, Arthur and Nizamodeen Hosein, were convicted of her kidnapping and murder in September 1970.
