The hometown sheriff’s department of Sudiksha Konanki, a University of Pittsburgh student who went missing while on a spring break holiday in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, has named a person of interest in her disappearance. Loudoun County, Virginia Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Thomas Julia told Fox News Digital that 24-year-old Joshua Ribe is a “person of interest” in Konanki’s disappearance. Person of interest identified in Sudiksha Konanki case gives ‘inconsistent statements’ to cops Julia said that Riibe “has been interviewed at length,” but added it’s “still a missing person case, not a criminal case.” Ribe has not been accused of any crime at this time. “All government agencies are searching … because the latest information we have from one of them, from the last person who was with the young woman, what he says according to the reports is that a wave, while on the beach, crashed into them.” Meanwhile, Sheriff Mike Chapman of Konanki’s hometown in Loudoun County, Virginia, told NewsNation on Monday, March 10, it is “way too premature” to assume the missing student drowned.
