Six nearly simultaneous explosions at three churches and three hotels took place at Colombo, Negombo and Batticaloa on Easter Sunday.

Other blasts were reported at St Sebastian’s Church in Negombo, a majority Catholic town north of Colombo, and at Zion Church in the eastern town of Batticaloa.

A spokesperson for the 46-year-old father-of-four Anders Holch Povlsen, confirmed that three of the businessman’s children were among the dead.

Mr Povlsen owns the Bestseller clothing chain which he inherited from his father when he was 28, and is the biggest stakeholder in Asos.com.

Police will examine reports that the intelligence community failed to detect or warn of possible suicide attacks as part of their investigation.
