Family of Scots mum murdered on Greek island 14 years ago believe she knew killer

The diary of a mum murdered on a Greek island 14 years ago has led her family to believe the man she met hours before her death was someone she knew.

Jean Hanlon was found dead at Heraklion harbour in Crete in March 2009 but a long-running case has failed to find how she came to harm. It comes after officials investigating her case for the third time confirmed the 53-year-old’s death was murder but have said there’s not enough evidence to prosecute.

Friends confirmed Jean met a man the night she died – but he has never been tracked down and remains the main suspect in her murder. The lack of information in Jean’s detailed diary about who she met is what has led her family to believe the man was someone she knew.
