A house which had been to the Kumar family for 15 years was destroyed over the weekend.

The four-bedroom home with a flat at the back, which once stood at Vellaidan Road, Sonaisali Road in Nadi, housed a family of three.

Jai Kumar, 65, a retired heavy machinery operator said he worked hard to build the home.

“I remember when we moved from Nabila to this spot, I worked hard to make ends meet and see my son take on his livelihood too,” said Mr Kumar.

He was not present at home when the incident happened. He claimed the cost of damage was about $100,000.
