A person of interest has been identified in the search for missing University of Pittsburgh student Sudiksha Konanki, who disappeared during a spring break trip in the Dominican Republic. The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office in Virginia, where Konanki is from, has sent detectives to Punta Cana to assist with the U.S. side of the investigation. The Dominican Republic authorities have not confirmed if the individual is a person of interest in their investigation. The FBI is also assisting in the case.
Konanki had traveled to Punta Cana with five friends from college, but disappeared after 4:15 a.m. on March 6. While her friends returned to the hotel, she stayed back on the beach with individuals she had met on the trip. The sheriff’s office emphasized that the individual identified as a person of interest is not a suspect, as it is still a missing person case.
The FBI National Press Office referred questions to Dominican Republic authorities, indicating that they are actively participating in the investigation. Konanki’s disappearance has raised concerns, and efforts are being made to gather information and locate her. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities are working diligently to find out what happened to Konanki during her trip to the Dominican Republic.
