Virginia college student Sudiskha Konanki went missing in the Dominican Republic over a week ago, and new details are surfacing about the case. A key witness, Joshua Riibe, told police that he and Konanki were swept away by a big wave while swimming. Riibe was interrogated for nearly four hours by Dominican Police, where he refused to answer some questions related to the incident. He claims that after the wave hit them, he managed to pull Konanki to shore before passing out and waking up to find her missing.
Riibe said he expected to see Konanki the next day and thought she had left the beach, only to later realize she was missing. Dominican Republic police are treating the case as a missing persons investigation, with no suspects identified. Konanki’s family, based in Loudoun County, is going through a difficult time and has asked for privacy.
The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office has dispatched investigators to assist in the search for Konanki. Riibe was interviewed by these investigators and was said to be cooperative. The investigation by the Dominican National Police is ongoing, with no updates available at this time.
The case has drawn attention to the importance of skilled interviewing and interrogation techniques in cross-jurisdictional cases. Konanki’s family is processing the latest developments as they await further information on her whereabouts. This information was sourced from FOX News Digital and the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office.
