Jean Hanlon suspect has charges dropped as 'devastated' family search for answers over death of mum
The family of a Scots mum who died on a Greek holiday island 16 years ago have been dealt a bitter blow in their battle to bring the person they believe responsible to justice. The family of a Scots mum who died on a popular Greek holiday island in mysterious circumstances have been dealt a bitter blow after charges against a suspect were dropped. Jean Hanlon 's body was found in the sea off the Crete town of Heraklion days after she disappeared in 2009 and her loved ones believe that she was murdered. The family, led by son Michael Porter, hired a private investigator last year who identified a potential suspect and passed his findings to prosecutors. That 54-year-old suspect, who was known to Jean, was charged with manslaughter in January, but now the family have been told the case is unlikely to go to trial. The prosecutor in the case informed their lawyer on Monday that she considered there was insufficient evidence. The family now has ten days to appeal that decision. Jean, who was from Dumfries, lived and worked on the island for a number of years. Michael, 40, said: "Unfortunately the prosecutor in Crete has proposed to file the case, lifting all limitations on suspects and stopping all trial and prosecution. "We now have 10 days to file our appeal, which our lawyer and Private Investigator are working hard on producing. I have kept quiet for months now to prevent any harm on the case but yet again the courts and justice system have let mum down and are trying to sweep it under the carpet again.' Michael, who lives and works in London, said the suspect had a short relationship with his mother lasting only a few weeks and appears to have refused to accept that the relationship was over. A fresh investigation was launched last year into Jean's death after Michael passed a 24-page report from their private investigator to the Crete prosecution authorities. It identified a man who the family believe was with her on the night she went missing. Jean, who was 53, had been living in the village of Gouves, about 12 miles from Heraklion working in local bars and tavernas. The suspect was also from there. Her body was discovered on 13 March 2009, four days after she had disappeared. An initial post-mortem ruled the mother-of-three had drowned, but a new investigation suggested her injuries had been caused by a struggle, after the case was reopened in 2019.

A fresh appeal on the Greek equivalent of Crimewatch in 2020 failed to yield any new information. In 2021, specialist officers from Athens working as part of a unit investigating organised crime were called in but were unable to find any fresh evidence, though they didn't rule out foul play. Last year Athens based private investigator Haris Fluskounis was called in by Jean's family. He re-examined the evidence and post mortem reports and handed a 29-page dossier to prosecutors using details of her daily diary to identify the 54-year-old suspect. Michael believes that diary evidence is enough to put the man on trial. It alleges that he became possessive and began stalking Jean after the end of their brief association. Michael believes his mum had arranged to meet him to tell him the relationship was finally over on the night she died and says there are details in the diary of that with times and dates. The current investigation is being led by the Greek prosecution authorities in Heraklion, Crete's main town. Michael's lawyer was told about the decision not to prosecute on Monday. The prime suspect has never been named publicly and is believed to have worked in car sales and rentals. Michael added: "She had known this man briefly for about two weeks during which they had dated. We believe that this is the same man who was stalking her." Michael says the injuries suffered by her mum were similar to those suffered in a road accident or falling from a great height. He added: "There were marks around her neck and a handprint on her right posterior which was the sign of a struggle.. It's not known where the attack on his mum took place but is believed to have happened around the Port of Heraklion. "We know she was dead before her body went in the water. It has never been explained to me exactly what happened to my mum due to the incompetence of the police in the beginning. They initially said she had drowned but it was only due to us fighting and campaigning that they realised she was dead before she went into the water so she couldn't possibly have drowned. "They even suggested it was suicide which was ridiculous. There was nothing in her diaries to suggest that was a scenario." Michael has been told that the manslaughter case file has been passed to a more senior prosecutor who will make the final decision on whether the case goes to trial. It is during that period that the Hanlon family can lodge their appeal against the case being dropped. Michael added: "It was completely heartbreaking and devastating on Monday when we found out how much the Crete authorities had discounted every single bit of information we have given to them. It just feels like there is this underlying tone of the powers to be trying to sweep everything under the carpet, again. I feel that they don't want to show the mistakes they made from day one." Both prosecutors and police on Crete have been contacted for comment

Air India crash victim's sister blasts officials after receiving wrong remains
Sister Arwen says the family has been left "traumatised" by the mix-up and is seeking "dignity" for her brother A woman who tragically lost her brother in the Air India crash has spoken out about the additional trauma her family has suffered after being given the wrong remains. Fiongal and Jamie Greenlaw-Meek, aged 39 and 45 respectively, were among the 242 victims of the devastating crash on June 12 near Ahmedabad airport in India's Ahmedabad state. Arwen, Fiongal's sister, has revealed that the grieving family is now seeking accountability from those officials responsible for mislabelling her dearly loved brother's remains. Earlier this year, Fiongal had appeared on This Morning to promote the wellness brand he had co-founded with his husband. In an interview with the BBC, Arwen expressed her desire for "closure for the family" and "dignity" for her brother. She voiced fears that authorities may have mistakenly cremated his body under another person's name. "If that is not possible - because the worst case scenario is that he has been cremated as somebody else - then we need to know that in order to move on," she stated. "Somebody mislabelled remains - that has added trauma," reports the Mirror. Arwen criticised Indian authorities for their failure to establish proper "forensic protocols" at the crash site, revealing that the site remained open for two days after the plane came down. "It just can't happen again," she said. "I think the whole family were and still are in complete disbelief because it is things that happen on the news and to other people. It was shocking and is confusing." The Foreign Office has stated that it is providing support to the families of Brits involved in the crash, assigning them "dedicated caseworkers". However, when it comes to the "formal identification of bodies", they have said that this is a "matter for the Indian authorities". In a shocking revelation last month, it was discovered that some of the deceased were incorrectly identified before being flown back to the UK. The relatives of one victim had to cancel funeral plans after being informed that their coffin contained the body of an unknown passenger rather than their family member. Adding to the distress, the "co-mingled" remains of more than one person killed in the crash were mistakenly placed in the same casket in another appalling error. These had to be separated before the burial could proceed. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community! Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.

Among the victims of the Air India flight 171, which lost power and crashed seconds after departing from Ahmedabad for London Gatwick, 52 were returning Britons. Two instances of mistaken have been uncovered so far, but there are fears that more such errors could have occurred, leaving families in a state of limbo and confusion.
