The 26-year-old Afghan man who confessed to dumping the remains of a dead British woman in Greece has been identified as boxer and migrant Sharif Ahmadzai.
Ahmadzai, whose identity was disclosed by local and international outlets, reportedly arrived through a migrant boat on the Greek island of Lesbos in 2016. His story as a migrant was the center of an animation published by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IRFC) nine years ago.
The Afghan man now stands as the main suspect in the murder of 38 year-old British woman Elisabeth-Jane Ross, whose remains were found at an abandoned building in Athens in mid-July.
Ahmadzai is due to appear before a local court on Wednesday, facing charges of premeditated murder, robbery, and weapons-related offenses.
Greek police officers originally detained Ahmadzai last week after he confessed to dumping the briefcase containing Ross’ remains. The briefcase with the remains were found at the abandoned building by a homeless person. The discovery immediately triggered an investigation that led to the successful identification of Ross’ remains some days later.
