A man accused of killing a Scottish woman and disposing of her body in a suitcase in Athens is due to appear before a Greek court. The suspect is widely reported to be Sharif Ahmadzai, 26, an Afghan boxer who left his home country after being orphaned as a teenager. Greek officials said he admitted moving the body, but denied the murder allegations. Ms Ross, who is understood to be from Edinburgh, entered Greece on June 26 and was initially staying with friends in Piraeus, a port area of Athens. A Police Scotland spokesperson previously said: “We are aware of the death of a Scottish woman in Athens and are liaising with authorities in Greece.
