Prosecutors in Denmark say they will bring murder charges against the inventor suspected of killing a Swedish journalist on board his submarine.<\/p>\n
They are expected to ask for the new charges when Mr Madsen appears in court in early September.<\/p>\n
Ms Wall was last seen alive on 10 August as she departed with Mr Madsen on his self-built underwater vessel.<\/p>\n
On Wednesday a headless torso found in waters off Denmark was identified as belonging to Ms Wall.<\/p>\n
DNA from the torso – which had been weighted down with metal – matched that on Ms Wall’s hairbrush and toothbrush.<\/p>\n
Mr Madsen initially said he had dropped her off safely near Copenhagen, but then said she died in an accident and that he had “buried” her at sea.<\/p>\n
He denies killing Ms Wall and was initially charged with negligent manslaughter.<\/p>\n
Danish police believe Mr Madsen deliberately sank the 40-tonne submarine hours after the search for Ms Wall began.<\/p>\n
Her partner had reported that she had not returned from the trip.<\/p>\n
Part of her remains were found on a beach south of Copenhagen on Monday.<\/p>\n
