It was in October 2004 that the 56-year-old language teacher Anna Lena Svensson and the eight-year-old boy Mohamad Ammouri were stabbed to death on Åsgatan in central Linköping.
Despite a wealth of evidence in the form of, among other things, DNA, murder weapons and a hat found in connection with the crime scene, it took almost 16 years before a perpetrator could be arrested.
Arrested in June
In June, Daniel Nyqvist was arrested and then topped.
After a 100 percent match with the perpetrator's DNA, he admitted the act.
But already in January earlier this year, the police also received a tip about him from a childhood friend and stated that he was similar to the phantom image and had a fascination for knives.
Forensic psychiatric care likely
In September, the trial began at Linköping District Court.
Prosecutor Britt-Louise Viklund demands that Daniel Nyqvist be convicted of murder to forensic psychiatric care.
Lawyer, Johan Ritzer, believes that it should be counted as a homicide - because he is considered to have suffered from a serious mental disorder at the time of the crimes.
He also agrees that Daniel Nyqvist should be sentenced to forensic psychiatric care.
At 11.00 today, we get the answer to how Linköping District Court reasoned, what punishment the man receives and what he is sentenced for.
