Sharif Ahmadzai and his wife Alaina Hall Credit: Facebook Elisabeth-Jane Ross was found dead in an abandoned building on July 18 Credit: Unknown He also had a key to the flat she was staying in – which was owned by his organisation, Love Every Nation Athens. Ahmadzai travelled to Greece on a small boat in 2016, and later married US-born Alaina Hall in 2023. Alaina allegedly reported her husband to cops after she became suspicious he was involved in Elisabeth’s death. She said she woke up on the evening of July 15 to find him missing, but when she checked his shared location it showed him at Elisabeth’s apartment. Most read in The Sun Ahmadzai, a professional boxer from Afghanistan, arrived in Greece in 2016 Ahmadzai had also given her 2,550 euros (£2,200) and a new iPhone 17 Pro, which she believed was bought using money stolen from Elisabeth’s bank accounts. A Greek police source told The Times: “The testimony of the wife has been crucial and it would appear that she did not want to be part of the crime committed by her husband. “Without her and CCTV evidence, we would not have been able to find this man.” Ahmadzai’s website states his father, a military commander in Kabul, was shot dead in a Taliban ambush when he was four. Five years later his older brother was kidnapped by the Taliban and when he was 15 the rest of his family was wiped out in a suicide car bomb, the website says. Elisabeth regularly travelled to Greece to volunteer with NGOs, working with refugee centres including the One Heart organisation in Athens. She arrived in the Greek capital on a flight from Edinburgh on June 26. Police believe she was killed not far from where her body was found in the abandoned building in Kypseli.

Her phone was used to send messages and mislead her loved ones until her identity was made public on July 29. Her dad, a lawyer from Edinburgh, said he received texts claiming she needed to be alone for a while up to two weeks after her death. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office said earlier: “Our thoughts are with Elisabeth’s family during this difficult time. “We are providing consular support and are in contact with the local authorities.”
