An 86-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the murder of a couple on their farm in Wales more than 30 years ago.
Harry and Megan Tooze were found dead in a cowshed with gunshot wounds at their farm in Llanharry, near Cardiff, Wales, on 26 July 1993.
South Wales Police began a forensic review of the case in 2023 in the hopes of uncovering new evidence in the murders of Mr Tooze, 64, and Mrs Tooze, 67.
The force arrested a man on Wednesday and he is currently in police custody.
Detective superintendent Mark Lewis said: “While this arrest is clearly a significant development in the investigation, our inquiries are very much ongoing.
“This case has affected many people over the years, and our aim is to find the answers to the unanswered questions which remain about their deaths over 30 years on.
“Even with this passage of time, I appeal to anyone who has any information about the murders to come forward and speak to police.”
