What documents tell us about the suspect in murder of Harris County Pct. 4 Corporal Maher Husseini

Athir S. Murady owned security companies in the Dallas area. His business charters were forfeited over the last two years, the most recent in August.

Documents filed with the Texas Secretary of State show the man accused of killing Harris County Deputy Constable Maher Husseini, owned security companies in the Dallas area.

KPRC 2 Investigates reporter Robert Arnold found through Texas Department of Public Safety filings and secretary of state documents Murady owned at least two security companies and what appears to be a driving school.

Documents show the business charters for Murady’s companies were forfeited over the last two years, the latest on August 16.

Murady’s company filings with the state included the following:

In June of 2023, Murady was deleted as an Officer/Member/Manager of Texas Protection Associates LLC. A business associate with an address on Westpark Drive was listed.
