Singaporean of Indian origin found guilty of murder



Sydney, June 21 (IANS) A Singaporean of Indian descent has been found guilty of murdering his two Singaporean flatmates in Sydney three years ago.

According to reports, a 12-member jury at St James Court here Tuesday found Ram Tiwary, 27, guilty of murdering Tan Poh Chuan and Tay Chow Lyang in their apartment at Kingsford in eastern Sydney on Sep 15, 2003.

According to a report in the Daily Telegraph newspaper, Tiwary did not react as the jury delivered its verdict after an 18-day trial. His parents and brother, who had travelled from Singapore to Sydney for the trial, showed no emotion. His mother, though, clutched her husband's hand as the verdict was read out.

Tiwary was charged with bludgeoning his two mates with an aluminium bat and stabbing them to death eight months after the incident. All three were engineering students at the University of New South Wales.

Tiwary had pleaded not guilty to the charge. He said he had hid in his room as he was too scared to come out after hearing a commotion outside.

The prosecutors had contended that Tiwary, who owed one of the flatmates $5,000, had bought the aluminium bat two days before the incident.

They said Tan and Tay suffered similar multiple blows to the head and stabs to the neck with a kitchen knife.

Meanwhile, a report in the Singapore's Today newspaper quoted Tiwary's defence counsel as saying that though the evidence for the case was 'circumstantial', the prosecution had a strong case to make.

Tiwary has been remanded to custody for sentencing submissions before judge Michael Adams on July 7.

Doyle told Today that Tiwary's parents would 'definitely appeal'.
