The message which was later on given to the employees by the Pearson companies CEO John Fallon said that his companies employee Kowalski just arrived at his hotel and immediately explosion took place in the hotel on the Easter Sunday.

Pearson CEO Fallon wrote that “Colleagues who knew Dieter well talk about how much fun he was to be around, how big-hearted and full-spirited he was,” adding that “We're angry that a good man, who took simple pleasure in fixing things, has been killed, along with many others, by evil men and women who know only how to destroy.”
