"Prosecution will be brought," she tells the newspaper.

The deadline for filing charges expires on Friday, August 7, at 11:00 a.m. Flordal does not want to go into further detail about what happened in the investigation that now allows her to bring charges.

I don't want to comment on that, I will respond to it on Friday. Until then, I have no comment.

On April 8 this year, the Prosecution Authority announced that a 45-year-old man had been arrested on suspicion of the double murder of an elderly couple who were found dead on a farm in Brattås outside Härnösand in June 2005.

The man was identified through DNA genealogy research on traces left by a suspected perpetrator at the crime scene.
