MUMBAI - One Canadian was killed in Mumbai following bloody and co-ordinated attacks in India's financial capital, Foreign Affairs Minister Lawrence Cannon said in a statement Friday.

Cannon's statement said that the family of the victim had been notified and that consular officials were providing assistance.

"We are now able to confirm the tragic death of one Canadian in these attacks," said Cannon in the statement

The statement said the privacy reasons prevented the release of the victim's name.

The Canadian was among the 130 dead in the terrorist attacks that left at least 315 wounded and many more held hostage inside two luxury hotels.

Cannon also said in the statement that one of two Canadians injured in the attacks suffered serious injuries and was in stable condition in intensive care. The other Canadian had been released from the hospital. Consular officials visited the seriously injured Canadian and were in contact with his family.
