Sydney, April 25 (IANS) An Indian origin man in Fiji was Thursday found guilty of killing his wife and two daughters.

A court in Suva, Fiji's capital, found Bimlesh Dayal, 43, guilty of the murder of his wife Ranjini Rekha Singh and their two minor daughters, Amisha and Anisha, on the intervening night between Oct 28-29, 2011, media reported.

Dayal had claimed that his wife had an affair with their landlord's son.
