Man confesses to 17-year-old murder after dna hit
A 41-year-old man has confessed to murdering a 15-year-old school girl in 1993 after a DNA check proved positive, the public prosecution department said on Thursday.
Henk F has told police he strangled Andrea Luton, but did not know her before the murder.
He was arrested on Monday after his DNA, taken in connection with another crime, proved a match for DNA evidence found on the girl’s body.
Andrea disappeared while cycling home from school in Hoogeveen to the family home in Ruinen. Her father found her body.
