Family of Muriel McKay blast police for not allowing her killer to help at dig to find body 54 years later
THE family of Muriel McKay have blasted police for not allowing her killer to help at the dig to find her body — 54 years after he buried her.
Relatives considered Nizamodeen Hosein, 75, to be their “only true hope” to give her “the burial she deserves”.
They quizzed him in January in Trinidad, where he was deported after serving 20 years.
His brother died in jail.
The pair kidnapped Muriel and held her for ransom before killing and burying her at a farm in Stocking Pelham, Herts.
Yesterday, police ended their latest dig after finding no evidence and said Hosein was not brought to the UK as he was not a reliable witness.
Muriel’s son Ian said: “We can’t believe police won’t make an allowance.
“He needs to be there.
“He wants to help us.”
