On March 22nd, the search for Muriel McCay's remains is pressing on after a bone dug up in an East London garden turned out to be animal, not human. McCay vanished in a botched kidnapping on December 29, 1969, when Kruxmas took her for Anna Murdoch and demanded a 1 million pound ransom from her newspaper executive husband. The property on Bethnal Green Road, once housed a tailor shop where one of the convicted kidnappers worked. Brothers Arthur and Nizammaldeen Hosein were jailed for her murder without a body ever found, marking one of Britain's early cases like that. McCay's grandson shared the family's disappointment, calling it an emotional drop after the brief hope, but they're staying positive and committed to. Answers after more than 50 years. The dig came after a tip from a witness's daughter in ground scans showing disturbance, leading private teams to excavate last Friday, March 20th. Police forensics back the non-human call, and with their plans to keep going until human remains surface, the family heads into the next phase, determined to uncover the truth.
