Scottish woman's phone reportedly used after death as Athens suitcase murder investigation deepens



Thursday July 30, 2026- Greek investigators are intensifying their investigation after evidence suggested the mobile phone of a Scottish woman found dead inside a suitcase in Athens was used after her death.


Authorities believe messages were sent from the victim's phone in an apparent attempt to make family members believe she was still alive, raising suspicions that someone tried to cover up the crime and delay its discovery.

The victim, identified as 38-year-old Elisabeth-Jane Ross, was discovered inside a suitcase in an abandoned building in Athens after being reported missing.

Police are reviewing CCTV footage, phone records, hotel bookings, and witness statements to reconstruct her final movements. While investigators have not yet confirmed the cause of death, forensic and toxicology examinations are ongoing, and authorities are treating the case as a suspected homicide.

The case has sparked widespread attention in both Greece and the United Kingdom, with investigators working alongside international agencies to identify those responsible. As forensic evidence continues to emerge, officials hope digital data and surveillance footage will provide the breakthrough needed to solve the case and deliver justice for the victim and her family.
