Millionaire scoops millions more in UK lottery -report

LONDON, Sep 10 (Reuters) The rich, they keep getting richer, judging by a report today that the winner of Britain's 53.82 million dollars lottery jackpot last month was already a multi-millionaire.

The identity of the person who became Britain's second-biggest lottery winner on scoring the August 31 EuroMillions jackpot has not been officially disclosed.

But the Sun newspaper reported he already owned a multinational business, a four-million-pound gated property and a Rolls Royce.

''He is desperately trying to keep his windfall secret from everyone except his family,'' the newspaper wrote.

Asked about the winner's identity, a spokesman for lottery operator Camelot said: ''The winner...did not take publicity, so we can neither confirm nor deny any information about it.'' REUTERS GL RN0027
