The family of Elisabeth-Jane Ross, 38, from Edinburgh, says it is in “deep pain” after the British woman was found dead in Athens in a suitcase. Multiple outlets report that Ross, also known as “Lisa,” is believed to have been found on Saturday, July 18, in a derelict building in the Kypseli area of the Greek capital. The Scotsman, Mirror outlets and the Manchester Evening News all publish family comments describing her as “kind, principled and selfless.”
Irish Mirror adds that a suspect has appeared in court in Athens charged with her murder, though details of the case are not provided in the articles summarized here. Across the coverage, the family’s public statements focus on their grief and personal tributes, while the reported circumstances center on the location and discovery method—her body being found inside a suitcase in Athens. The outlets do not agree on additional specific investigative details beyond these shared points.
