Hunting has been “stopped with immediate effect” on land belonging to the owner of fashion chain H&M.
Stefan Persson, the Swedish billionaire, owns Ramsbury Estates covering 19,000 acres across Wiltshire, Berkshire and Hampshire
ITV News has been told there will be no hunting on the land “for the foreseeable future” after allegations were made against the Vine & Craven Hunt.
A spokesperson for the estate said the hunt “have countered the allegations, but if proven the law will take its course”.
According to Forbes Persson is worth more the £15 billion.
He stepped down as chair in May 2020 but the business is still in the family with his son Karl-Johan taking over the role.
The Swedish billionaire owner of H&M has banned trail hunting on his 19,000-acre estate following accusations of foxes being illegally targeted.
Stefan Persson had previously allowed the Vine and Craven Hunt to ride on his Ramsbury Estates, which sprawls across Wiltshire, Berkshire and Hampshire.
But saboteurs alleged that on Saturday, December 6, the Hunt used voice calls associated with foxhunting, which was made an offence in 2004.
The Hunt strenuously denies straying beyond the permitted form of trail hunting, but the clothing tycoon, who is worth around £20billion, has now barred all activity on his land indefinitely.

But the hunt in question says the claims are ‘spurious’ There will be no hunting on the land “for the foreseeable future” after allegations were made against the Vine and Craven Hunt. A spokesperson for the estate said: “The Estate became aware of certain allegations made against the Vine & Craven hunt last week. This was following an outing by the hunt on the eastern side of the Estate near Hungerford. These allegations would be in contravention of the 2004 Hunting Act, and if true would be a very serious matter. We have spoken to the hunt who strenuously deny any wrongdoing.
