Moez Elmostafa

Moez Elmostafa (sometimes referred to in the news as Moez Mostafa or by his full first name of Moezeldin) was an African-American cab driver who picked up Reade Seligmann when he left the party at 610 North Buchanan Boulevard. Since the cab ride occurred during the time that Crystal Gail Mangum claimed she was attacked, Elmostafa came forward as an alibi witness for Seligmann. Shortly after coming forward, Elmostafa was arrested on an unrelated, two-and-a-half-year old warrant. The circumstances of the arrest and Elmostafa's testimony suggest that it was an attempt to discourage him from serving as a witness.
