Greek police have solved the murder of 38-year-old British national Elizabeth-Jane Ross, whose body was discovered inside a suitcase in an abandoned building in the Athens district of Kypseli on July 18.

Authorities have identified a 26-year-old foreign national, reportedly an Afghan citizen, who is now facing charges of intentional homicide, robbery and violations of Greece’s weapons legislation.

Ross had travelled from the United States to Cyprus before arriving in Greece. She initially stayed with friends in the Athens suburb of Keratsini for several days before telling them she planned to travel to Kypseli to meet American friends. An autopsy revealed no visible external injuries, while forensic experts estimated that she had died five to seven days before her body was found.
