The billionaire fashion tycoon behind the online clothing retailer Asos lost three of his four children in the Sri Lanka terrorist attacks, a spokesman has said.
The bombings at churches and luxury hotels across Sri Lanka on Easter Sunday killed 290 people and wounded about 500. An investigator said on Monday that seven suicide bombers had taken part in the attacks.
In that brutal cowardice at, three of the four children of Denmark's richest man Anders Holch Povlsen have died in Sri Lanka blasts. Povlsen's family was visiting the country over the Easter holiday.
"We ask you to respect the privacy of the family," said a spokesperson for Bestseller, the clothing brand owned by Povlsen, who is also the biggest single shareholder in clothing giant ASOS.
He declined to comment on the identity of the children or whether other members of the family had been visiting Sri Lanka. It has not been reported in which of the series of blasts they died.
