Ano Liosia homicide investigation targets victim's contacts and possible female suspect

On the night of 1 August, a 72‑year‑old man was discovered dead in the back seat of his parked car in the Ano Liosia suburb of Athens. Autopsy findings show multiple head and abdominal injuries, suggesting a violent assault rather than a natural death. Police have classified the case as a homicide and have sealed the scene while conducting a thorough forensic examination.

Investigators are focusing on the victim’s recent contacts and social circle. A woman known to have interacted with the victim, described as a drug user with ties to the local Romani community, has become a person of interest. Authorities are also tracing the victim’s broader network to identify any additional leads. The investigation remains ongoing, with the forensic report expected to clarify the exact cause and timing of death.
