Sudiksha Konanki , 20 , was last seen on March 6 with a group of friends heading to a beach in Punta Cana .

She is believed to have stayed behind with Joshua Riibe , a student at a Minnesota university she met while on the trip.

Riibe told authorities he tried to save her from waves and thought she had taken her things and left afterward, reports say.

She was last seen wearing a brown bikini, big round earrings, a metal designer anklet on her right leg, yellow and steel bracelets on her right wrist and a multicolored beaded bracelet on her left wrist, according to the posters.
