Leading television star couple Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya were on a tour of Europe to celebrate their 8th wedding anniversary from the last few days. However, their recent visit to Florence turned out to be a nightmare as they were robbed of Rs 10 lakh as well as all the other precious things including, passports and wallets. Now the couple has requested immediate embassy intervention so that they can return to India safely.
Talking to ETimes , Dahiya said that they need immediate help as they are left with no money. According to the actor, “Everything about this trip has been incredible, except for this incident. We arrived in Florence yesterday and planned to stay for a day. We went to check out a property we liked for our stay and left all our belongings in a car parked outside. However, when we returned to get our stuff, we were shocked to find that the car had been broken into, and our passports, wallets, money, shopping, and all our valuable items were gone. Fortunately, they left behind some old clothes and food items."
Vivek Dahiya added, “We tried contacting the local police, but they dismissed our case, saying that without CCTV cameras in that specific area, they can't help us. They even felt there was no point in them visiting the location. The police station shuts at 6 pm, and after that, they can't offer any assistance. We also tried reaching out to the embassy, but unfortunately, they had already closed for the day." As per their schedule Vivek and Divyanka were supposed to return to India in a few days.
The actor has requested immediate bureaucratic intervention so that they can return to India soon. On the good side, the hotel staff has been extremely kind and helpful to them but since they are stuck with no cash they need embassy help immediately. Dahiya said, “We require temporary passports and substantial help from the embassy to get back to India, as we have nothing with us."
