希腊警方周日表示，他们已逮捕一名嫌疑人，该案涉及本月在雅典发现一名英国女子尸体的案件，尸体被装在行李箱中。
警方在一份声明中称，他们逮捕了一名26岁男子，据媒体报道该男子为阿富汗籍，并称该男子已“供认了自己的行为”。
他们表示：“有组织犯罪打击局的警员已侦破一起针对一名38岁英国国民的凶杀案，该女子的尸体于7月18日在Kipseli区一栋废弃建筑内的行李箱中被发现。”
他们表示，已针对该男子开启“故意杀人、抢劫以及违反枪支法律”的刑事案卷。
据警方称，这名据媒体报道名为伊丽莎白-简·罗斯、来自苏格兰的女子于6月26日来到希腊，在比雷埃夫斯地区的一处朋友住所居住至7月10日，之后前往雅典大都市区一处不明地点。

美国国际刑警组织协助确认了受害者的指纹，英国国家犯罪局和苏格兰警方的联络官也参与了调查。
警方表示：“尽管尸体已高度腐烂且环境条件恶劣，但（调查人员）成功提取到了受害者的可用指纹。”

Greek police on Sunday said they had arrested a suspect in their investigation into the death of a British woman whose body was found in a suitcase in Athens this month.
The police in a statement said they had arrested a 26-year-old man, identified in media reports as an Afghan national, adding that he had “confessed his actions.”
“Officers of the Directorate for Combating Organized Crime have solved the homicide of a 38-year-old U.K. national, whose body was found inside a suitcase in an abandoned building in the Kypseli area on July 18,” they said.
They had opened a criminal file against him for “intentional homicide, robbery and violation of firearms legislation,” they said.
The woman, identified in media reports as Elisabeth-Jane Ross from Scotland, had come to Greece on June 26 and resided at a friend’s home in the Piraeus area until July 10, at which point she departed for an unknown destination within the greater Athens area, they said.
Family said Ross, who went by Lisa, had told them that on July 15 she would go to Kypseli, where her “American friends” were, BBC News reported.
Police identified the suspect after analyzing video footage, according to the BBC.
“It emerged that the 26-year-old placed the body in a suitcase and transported it to the abandoned premises. Furthermore, in the days that followed, the 26-year-old used the victim’s bank cards to withdraw sums of money,” the police said.

During searches carried out at his home, police said they found and seized a replica pistol and a knife, BBC News reported.
According to reports, the suspect said the victim was already dead when he found her.
Interpol authorities in the U.S. helped identify the victim’s fingerprints, and liaison officers of the United Kingdom National Crime Agency and Scotland police cooperated in the investigation.
“Despite advanced decomposition and adverse environmental conditions (investigators) managed to identify usable fingerprints belonging to the victim,” the police said.
In a statement to BBC News, a Scottish government spokesperson said: “This is an extremely distressing time for the family of Elisabeth-Jane Ross and it is important that their privacy is respected while enquiries continue. “
