Authorities have launched a criminal investigation following the discovery of a woman’s body in an abandoned structure in Athens. The victim has been identified as a 38-year-old humanitarian worker, according to reports detailing the incident. The body was discovered on July 18 by a homeless individual, found wrapped in cloth and placed inside a trunk.
The victim is reportedly the daughter of Elisabeth-Jane Ross, a prominent Edinburgh lawyer who resided in Greece. The investigation quickly led to the arrest of a 26-year-old Afghan national. Police stated on Sunday that the suspect had been questioned and allegedly admitted involvement in the crime.
Authorities have since initiated a criminal case against the individual, charging him with premeditated murder, robbery, and violation of weapons laws. Furthermore, weapons were reportedly recovered from the suspect’s residence. The police investigation into the death of the woman is ongoing.
The arrest marks a significant development in the case, providing formal charges related to the discovery of the body. The details surrounding the events of this year continue to be managed by Greek law enforcement as they process the evidence gathered from the scene and the suspect.
