The 38-year-old Scot went missing on 18 July before officers found her remains stuffed inside a suitcase in the Kypseli district. Greek police arrested a 26-year-old man on Thursday after he confessed to carrying her body to a derelict building. Investigators say the suspect also used her bank cards to withdraw cash, and officers seized a knife and a replica gun at his home.
