Daily Mail: Billionaire ASOS owner Anders Holch Povlsen has lost three of his four children in the Sri Lanka terror attacks on
Easter Sunday.
Povlsen is the second largest private landowner in the UK and is the biggest shareholder in the online retailer.
Just days before the devastating attacks, one of Povlsen’s children, Alma, shared a snap of her three siblings Astrid, Agnes and Alfred, next to a pool.
It is not yet known which of Povlsen’s four children have died. Povlsen, 46, is married to Anne Storm Pedersen. The pair met when Anne began working in sales for Bestseller.
He is Denmark’s richest man, with his father passing down ownership of the international clothes retailer chain Bestseller when he was just 28 years old.
Seven suicide bombers killed at least 290 people in coordinated attacks on five-star hotels and churches on Easter Sunday.
Sri Lankan High Commissioner to the UK Manisha Gunasekera has said eight British nationals were killed in the attacks.
No group has claimed responsibility but Sri Lankan police say a previously unknown Muslim extremist group were the subject of an intelligence warning 10 days before.
Early evidence points towards Islamist group National Thowheed Jamaath (NTJ), according to intelligence chiefs, who warn that more attacks are expected.
