A man who allegedly attacked a couple in their 70s after working on their garden will remain in custody charged with murder.

Frederick Steel Sayers, 26, was arrested after a man was found dead and his wife with serious head injuries at a home north of Brisbane on Thursday.

Police said early investigations suggested the 26-year-old was "on and about the premises conducting some gardening work". Police said it was not a domestic violence-related incident and Sayers was not previously known to the victims. Legal aid duty solicitor Brendan Whelan asked for an adjournment to allow police to provide him with the evidence involved in the case from forensic examinations, DNA testing and witnesses.Police prosecutor Alex Donald said he would be able to provide a brief of evidence within 10 weeks.
