The convicted, Hosein and his brother Arthur kidnapped Muriel McKay, then 55, in 1969 thinking that she was Rupert Murdoch's second wife Anna
London police said Tuesday they were reviewing new information in the 1969 kidnap-murder of Muriel McKay, who was mistaken for media tycoon Rupert Murdoch's wife, and whose body had never been found.
The Metropolitan Police said McKay's family had contacted them with fresh details, which the Murdoch-owned The Times newspaper said included the location of the body.
"The Met were contacted in December 2021 by the family of Muriel McKay regarding information they had obtained in relation to her murder," a spokeswoman told AFP.
The Times said the move came after the man convicted of the kidnapping, Nizamodeen Hosein, revealed where McKay's body was buried on a farm in Hertfordshire, north of London.
