US fashion retailer suspends payments made to former boss following BBC investigation.

On top of his standard pension, Mike Jeffries had been receiving lifetime bonus payments totalling about $1m (£801k) a year.

But in October, the BBC revealed claims of exploitation by young men recruited for sex events while he was boss.

A lawsuit then accused the US retailer of funding a sex-trafficking operation.

The brand told the BBC it has now suspended these extra retirement payments to Mr Jeffries.
