Police in Greece hold a 26-year-old man, Sharif Ahmadzai, in connection with the death of 38-year-old British charity worker Elisabeth-Jane Ross, from Edinburgh, reports say. Authorities allege Ross was killed before her body was placed inside a suitcase and left in an abandoned building in Athens. The alleged dumping takes place on July 16, according to the reports. Multiple outlets describe Ahmadzai as the individual detained after investigators linked him to the case. One outlet adds that he reportedly ran or was involved with a refugee charity in Athens, though details of the organisation and role are not consistently specified across the coverage provided. The reports identify Ross as the victim and say her body was discovered in Greece inside the suitcase in the abandoned structure. The sources presented here do not confirm the suspect’s guilt, and they use phrasing such as “suspected” or “accused,” indicating the case is still at the investigation or court stage.
