STOCKHOLM—Swedish prosecutors on Friday indicted two brothers for gross espionage on behalf of Russia, saying the alleged crime could be detrimental to the Nordic country’s security.

The men, aged 42 and 35, have been detained since last year and have previously denied all allegations. Their lawyer could not be immediately reached for comment on Friday.
