Robbery in Sri Lanka

Maybe it's time to ask your own gov for help. They can contact the SL embassy on your behalf.

Here is the page of the tourist authority website. http://www.srilanka.travel/contact_details

There are some email addresses at the bottom. One to the tourist police. Email them the details and add a link to this to show we are all watching.

Well done for reporting. Would you mind roughly giving your age and if male/female.

It seems odd for anyone to rob someone in their (the criminal's) home, since it would be relatively easy for the police to track them down. Eventually the owner of the home will return, right? It would have been much easier for the driver to rob you and throw you out of the car. For this reason, and because of your odd comment about terrorism, I must admit some skepticism about this whole affair. But my apologies if you actually were robbed.

Also... I can't find a "Blue Moon" anything in Kandy, but there is a jewelry store called Blue Moon Gold House in Old Peradeniya, which is a few km from Kandy. Is that the same general area? There's also a Blue Moon Hotel in Nuwara Eliya, which I assume is unrelated since it's several hours away. Of course if this is really a criminal enterprise, I wouldn't expect to find a website for it.

Ha, if you are a thief, will you register on any site ?
Definitely no, it is a silly people to do it.

The hotel owner is surely to rent the guesthouse only,
if something go wrong, can escape at once.

it's really strange. will anybody just run away from a guest house to cover up a robbery? i mean the owner.
