Afghan Suspect in Greek Aid Worker Killing | Madison News

A 26-year-old Afghan man in Greece is charged with murder, robbery, and firearms offenses after the body of a 38-year-old Scottish aid worker was found in a suitcase at an Athens construction site. CCTV footage led to his arrest, and he claims he discovered her dead and panicked—though how he accessed her apartment remains unclear. He admitted to withdrawing €10,000 using her card and authorities suspect someone used her phone post-death to send fake messages. His wife alerted police after location data showed him at her apartment on the night she died. The cause of death is still under investigation, with asphyxiation a leading theory. Despite his background as a former boxer and co-founder of a refugee aid nonprofit with his US citizen wife, investigators are probing whether their shared humanitarian work created a connection—or motive.
