Mahfuz Huq has been captured! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Kane · 02-11-2011, 05:47 PM

In case you haven't already heard, Mahfuz Huq has been captured in India. As you'll recall, he was wanted for the 1989 murder of Todd Kelley.

The article I found briefly mentions UM and America's Most Wanted, since Mahfuz Huq was profiled on both shows.

Wonderful news!!!!!

Again, thanks for the information, Kane -- you always seem to find new information on these older cases.

I'm curious what information led to Huq's capture. Hopefully he will at last receive the legal punishment he deserves.

RobinW · 02-11-2011, 09:38 PM

Wow, this is pretty amazing news! Considering that he was on the run for 22 years and was hiding out in a foreign country, this wasn't high on my list of cases that I thought would be solved. Just goes to show that no matter how they old they may be, you can never completely lose hope about these mysteries being solved.

What I'm most curious about, of course, is if any revelations will come out about whether or not Christie Mutzfeld was actually involved in the murder, or at least witnessed it and was intimidated by Huq into keeping quiet about it for all these years. Even if she had nothing to do with it, I wonder if Huq will decide to make some claims like that out of spite.

holy crap!! I didn't think that he'd ever be found. I hope that he clears things up one way or another. I tend to lean towards Christy being innocent, myself.

Wow! What great news! This has been a long time coming. Good riddance.

nohwheregirl · 02-12-2011, 12:16 AM

Great news!

You know, I can't quite explain why, but this was always one of my LEAST favorite segments. It sort of seemed...beneath Robert Stack's dignity to be discussing Christie and her little love triangle, or something.

Steve W. · 02-12-2011, 02:10 AM

That's an awesome "Update"!

ScaryFog · 02-12-2011, 02:31 AM

Thanks for the update! I remembered this story as soon as I saw the name Mahfuz.

Sophie Treadmill · 02-12-2011, 04:56 AM

Wow! I didn't think he'd be captured either. It's good to be reminded that there is still hope for some of these "cold" cases.

Apostapler · 02-12-2011, 07:37 AM

I am as shocked as everyone else that he has been captured. This is fantastic news. Can't wait for the trial. Let's see what comes out.

crystaldawn · 02-12-2011, 08:11 AM

Thanks Kane! So glad he has been captured and am happy for Todd Kelly's family that they finally got some good news.

Wow, with in just four months, three cases featured on Unsolved Mysteries have been solved:
Arthur Lopez Jr. was captured in Mexico in November
Carlina White found alive in January
and now Mahfuz Huq
It's great to see all of these cases being solved!

TheCars1986 · 02-12-2011, 10:36 AM

This is awesome news. For some reason, I've always hated the fact that Mahfuz easily escaped (by leaving the country) and this was one I've always wanted to see him captured. Finally got my wish. Bye Mahfuz!

Just goes to show, never give up hope. No matter how long its been the truth can come out God willing. He has the answer even if no one else does and can find a way to bring it to light.
