Belle Gibson, 25, gained fame in Australia after she claimed to have beaten cancer using natural remedies rather than medical intervention.

She launched a successful app and cookbook, but later admitted the diagnosis was made up.

In ruling against Ms Gibson, a judge said the blogger may have "genuinely" believed what she was saying.

"Not all human beings are rational and reasonable all of the time," Federal Court of Australia judge Debbie Mortimer said on Wednesday.

Police official Mustafizur Rahman identified the victim as 40-year-old Niloy Chowdhury and said he was hacked to death in his apartment. The motive was not immediately clear.

The victim's family said his real name was Niloy Chottopadhay and that he used a different name on social media.

Asha Moni, the victim's wife, said at least four young people attacked her husband.
