The missing student of the University of Pittsburgh Sudiksha Konanki was seen in spooky surveillance images that ran to the beach of Dominican Republic where she was last seen alive.
The video shows Konanki who goes to the beach in Punta Cana with Joshua Steven Ribe, who is considered the last man who sees her alive.
It was taken in the early hours of March 6. Sudiksha was on vacation with her university friends.
The video shows her, Ribe and the group that walk to the ocean after a night out around 4 a.m.
At 5.55 am the others went back to their rooms and left Ribe and Sudiksha on the beach.
According to Ribe, the couple went for a swimming, but it was trapped by a large wave. Ribe says he was going back to the coast and then fell asleep. Sudiksha was never seen again.
Her body has not yet been found, but the Dominican police remains convinced that they drowned.
Her family is less certain. They call for a study into human trafficking.
A private researcher who investigated murder victim Natalee Holloway's disappearance in 2005 does not agree with the police theory that Sudiksha drowned.

Sudiksha Konanki, 20, disappeared from a beach in Punta Cana last week. Local officials believe she is drowning, but her family and a private researcher do not agree

“I don't think they drowned in the ocean,” private researcher TJ Ward told Fox News.
“I totally believe that someone knows something she is, or someone has taken her, or someone who holds her somewhere.”
Ward added: “If she had entered the water, she would have been washed away somewhere with a tide the way the island enters.”
The PI previously helped with the disappearance of 18-year-old Alabama High School graduate Natalee Holloway, who disappeared on the Caribbean island of Aruba in 2005.
Holloway's body was never found and she was declared dead in 2012. In 2023, Dutch tourist Jordan van der Soot admitted that he had killed Holloway because he had rejected his claims.
The Van Konanki family has also expressed doubts that she drowned and argued the authorities to investigate more sinister theories.
“It's four days, and if she was in water, she would probably be littered on the coast,” her father told, Subbarayudu Konanki to WTOP News.

Authorities used drones, helicopters and detection dogs in search of the student
“She wasn't found, so we ask them to investigate multiple options, such as kidnapping or kidnapping.”
It comes as a mysterious 24-year-old man who was the last known person who saw Konanki told that the police Konanki disappeared into the ocean.
The Iowa was a colleague guest in the Riu Republica Resort in Punta Cana, where Konanki and her friends stayed.
He told the police that he and Konanki went swimming after her friends returned to their rooms and got caught in a big wave. The man claimed that he came back to the beach, crossed and went to sleep on a beach bed.
When he woke up, he said, Konanki had disappeared.
The man is one of the many witnesses that the police have spoken since Konanki disappeared. Her friends have also provided statements to the authorities.
The US Department of Foreign Affairs cooperates with the Indian embassy in the Dominican Republic, who has taken the lead in the research because Konanki is an Indian citizen who was a permanent American resident.
According to her LinkedIn profile, from the pre-media student would graduate at the university in 2026.

The police have already spoken with Konanki's friends to determine exactly where a maritime search should be focused
