A man in his mid-40s has been remanded in custody on probable cause for the unsolved double murder at a farm in Brattås outside Härnösand in the summer of 2005. The arrest was enabled by DNA-based genealogy research following a new law change last year. Prosecutor Hanna Flordal confirms the man's DNA matches the trace from the crime scene.

The trial of a 29-year-old man and his 23-year-old wife, charged with murdering and dismembering his mother in Danderyd last summer, has concluded after ten days. The couple, accused of killing the woman, sawing off body parts, burning remains, and dumping them in a lake, deny murder but blame each other. The man partially admits grave desecration citing psychiatric issues; the court will decide on a forensic exam Friday.
