Aid Worker Found Dead in Suitcase | Edinburgh News
Description
A Scottish aid worker, Elisabeth-Jane Ross, 38, was found dead in a suitcase in Athens—days after going missing while volunteering with refugees. Her family calls her “kind, principled, and selfless,” grieving deeply as they ask for privacy. A 26-year-old Afghan boxer, Sharif Ahmadzai, now faces murder, robbery, and theft charges—including stealing from Ross’s bank accounts—and is held in custody. His lawyers seek her medical records as evidence mounts. Authorities are still investigating, with no signs of injury found yet, awaiting tissue analysis and reviewing surveillance. Communities in Greece and Edinburgh mourn the loss of a woman whose “unstoppable passion” was helping others.
