Corpse in suitcase in Agios Panteleimon — forensic pathologist at scene
An alert was raised on Sunday afternoon with the Hellenic Police when a 39-year-old foreign national reported a suspicious object on a pavement to the local Police Station, according to In.gr.
Specifically, the man discovered a suitcase at the corner of Alkamenos Street 5 and Charisis Street, from which a strong foul odour was emanating. Immediate Action officers rushed to the scene and established that a human corpse was located inside the suitcase.
Initial information referred to a male corpse, however subsequent details indicate that it is a woman, possibly of African descent. The authorities are awaiting the forensic pathologist's report, who travelled to the scene, so as to establish whether the deceased is a person who has been missing in recent times.
A resident of the area, who was on Alkamenos Street during the police investigation, spoke to a local news outlet about what took place. The case is ongoing.
