The two Swedes were arrested last summer after a dramatic car chase in Holmestrand south of Oslo. Now they are being prosecuted for allegedly planning a murder, reports NRK.

The Swedes, 18 and 21 years old, have been detained since they were arrested in June and are suspected of having been commissioned to murder a man in Sandefjord.

If they came here because they themselves belong to a criminal network that is part of a conflict or if they were asked to do it by someone else, we are working to clarify, says prosecutor Fredrik Borg Johannessen.

According to NRK, both men have previously been convicted of crimes in Sweden.
