The high-profile crime in Brattås occurred in 2005, when an elderly couple was murdered on their farm.
Prosecutor Hanna Flordal believes that the suspect's explanation for why he was at the scene and what he did there is not valid.
Over the years, hundreds of people have been DNA tested in the case without success. The turning point came last year when a new law that makes it possible to use DNA-based genealogy in murder investigations came into force. Then police were able to link the now-indicted man to DNA traces from the crime scene.
