Paul McClean, 25, a reporter for the Financial Times’s FastFT newsdesk, was snatched as he washed his hands in a lagoon known as Crocodile Rock after he had gone to the lavatory after a surfing lesson.
According to witnesses, he was seen waving in desperation as he was dragged underwater. He is believed to have only recently arrived in the country and was staying at a nearby hotel with friends.
The area, which is known to have a large population of crocodiles, is close to Elephant Rock, a popular spot for surfers near Arugam Bay on the southeast coast.
