American couple who 'adopted' Afghan migrant accused of stuffing British missionary's body in suitcase break silence to tell how they took traumatized teen into their home

Such was their closeness, the Afghan professional boxer called the couple 'mom' and 'dad' and they, together with their two now-adult sons, became his family. The couple insist Ahmadzai never showed any red flags that suggested he was capable of the brutal violence he now stands accused of. The couple say they and Ahmadzai, who later converted to Christianity, met his future wife, American Christian missionary Alaina Hall, 28, who was volunteering with a relief charity in the camp. They said long after they left Greece, Alaina and Ahmadzai became a couple in 2021, before marrying two years later and welcoming their first child in April. Ahmadzai and his wife knew Ross through their Christian humanitarian work on Lesvos, where she volunteered with the same organization.
