One of the founders of British online retailer ASOS, Quentin Griffiths, has died in Thailand under mysterious circumstances.
According to Daily Mail, citing local police, a 58-year-old businessman fell from the balcony of his apartment on the 17th floor of a residential complex in Pattaya.
There were no signs of forced entry or disorderly conduct at the facility, but law enforcement officials did not rule out the possibility of violent death. The final conclusion will be made after a forensic examination, which could take several months.
Griffiths founded ASOS in 2000 in London. The company became one of the pioneers in online clothing retailing, taking its name from the slogan “As seen on screen.”
It was previously reported that Italian journalist Andrea Lucidi, who has Russian citizenship, was detained in Istanbul along with other members of the international delegation.
