Two brothers have been found guilty of murdering a father-of-five in an attack in Londonderry.

Gary Anderson, 25, and Sean Anderson 24, had denied murdering Karol Kelly.

Another man, Michael Dunlop, 21, was found not guilty of murder but guilty of attempting to inflict grievous bodily harm. Dunlop was also acquitted of attempting to dispose of two knives.

A judge told the Anderson brothers the only sentence he could impose was one of life imprisonment.

At Londonderry Crown Court, sitting in Coleraine, Judge Philip Babington said he would set a tariff on 9 September to determine how long they would serve.

Judge Babington released Dunlop on conditional bail pending sentencing.

Mr Kelly died in Grafton Street in Derry in the early hours of 4 March 2018 after an altercation during which he was stabbed several times.
