New surveillance footage of Sudiksha Konanki shows the missing college student just before she vanished during her spring break trip.

Konanki, a 20-year-old University of Pittsburgh student, went missing on Thursday, March 6, in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, while on spring break with friends.

In a new video, taken at 4:15 a.m. local time on March 6, Konanki is seen leaving the RIU Hotels and Resorts lobby with three other people. She is arm-in-arm with a man while two women trail behind them as they exit the building, CNN reports.

The Dominican Republic National Police previously stated that surveillance cameras captured footage of Sudiksha and “the young foreigners who accompanied her” about “a few meters from entering the beach area” around 4:15 a.m.

Meanwhile, her father, Subbarayudu Konanki, told CNN that his daughter went to the beach on March 6 "with friends and some other guys they met at the resort.”

A member of civil defense canine unit searches for Sudiksha Konanki, a university student from the U.S. who disappeared on a beach in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, Monday, March. 10, 2025.

Subbarayudu told CNN that “her friends came back after some time and my daughter did not come back, did not show up from the beach.” Additionally, two police sources told ABC News that the other women who were with Sudiksha returned to their hotel around 5:55 a.m.

Sudiksha is believed to have stayed behind with a man, according to a local police source, per CNN. Surveillance footage captures the man leaving the beach around 9:55 a.m., but Sudiksha was nowhere to be seen.

The Dominican Republic National Police said in its March 9 statement that the young man who was with Sudiksha when she entered the beach “is under investigation.”

Sudkisha's father told WTOP-FM on Monday, March 10, that “it’s [been] four days, and if she was in water, she would likely have been strewn to shore.” Adding, “She’s not found, so we’re asking them to investigate multiple options, like kidnapping or abduction.”

Sources close to the investigation told ABC News that Sudkisha's clothes were found on the beach where she went missing.

Authorities have used drones, helicopters and detection dogs to search the waters near the area she was last seen, Jensen Sánchez, a Civil Defense spokesman, told The Associated Press on Tuesday, March 11.

“The search is underway at sea because it’s presumed she drowned. According to the boy who was with her, the waves swept her away, but that is under police investigation,” he said. Sánchez said it could take over a week for a body to surface in warm waters.

Since the initial report, U.S. and local law enforcement have been investigating the missing persons case. The FBI and U.S. Embassy International Liaison have joined in the investigation, per Tuesday, March 11 reports. The Embassy of India in the Dominican Republic is also involved. Sudiksha is a citizen of India and a permanent resident of Chantilly, Va.

Although the investigation is underway, no one has been charged or accused of a crime.

Travis Kelce has grown up, says Jason Kelce
Travis Kelce is "changing" because of new people in his life. The 35-sports star has been dating singer Taylor Swift since 2023, and Jason Kelce, Travis' older brother, has been staggered by his sibling's personal evolution. Speaking about his brother's growth, Jason said on the 'Fitz and Whit' podcast: "It’s been staggering, honestly." The 37-year-old star recalled Travis having a Peter Pan-like quality during his younger years. Jason said: "One of the things I love so much about Travis is that he never grew up. He was like Peter Pan, the lost boys." Jason acknowledged that the new people in Travis' life have had a healthy influence on him in recent times. The former NFL star said: "I think that sometimes you get people in your life that maybe get that out of you. That’s a good thing." Despite this, Travis has retained a playful side to his personality. Jason explained: "Trav, he is growing up. He’s still got that youthful enthusiasm. I think he’ll kind of always have that. It’s just part of his personality." Meanwhile, Travis recently admitted to feeling inspired by Taylor during her Eras Tour. The Kansas City Chiefs star admitted to taking inspiration from Taylor, 35, and her record-breaking tour. Speaking ahead of the Super Bowl, Travis explained: "What I saw on that tour last year was pretty remarkable. "To see the week-in, week-out travelling from one country to the next and how excruciating it is on her body and on her mind - and it’s not just her. It was her entire tour. It was an absolute machine and it was something I could admire watching." Travis also revealed that he was focusing on his diet ahead of the Super Bowl. He said: "I’ve been eating clean. I haven’t been drinking as much, a little lower on the pounds this week."
