10:33Now PlayingA judge in the Dominican Republic ruled Tuesday that Joshua Riibe, the man last seen with missing American student Sudiksha Konanki, is being unlawfully detained. Riibe appeared in court alongside his father and lawyers. According to Fox News, another hearing is scheduled for March 28, when he is expected to receive an explanation about the location of his passport, which was previously confiscated by authorities.
Konanki, a University of Pittsburgh student from Virginia, went missing on spring break at the Riu Republica resort in the early morning hours of March 6.
Konanki is seen on surveillance video going with a group to the beach shortly after 4 a.m. Most of the group is seen on video leaving the beach before 6 a.m.
Joshua Riibe, a St. Cloud State University student, is believed to be the last person to see her alive.
While Riibe has never been accused of a crime, Dominican authorities have held him in his resort room as a key witness, as search efforts continued for Konanki.
Konanki's parents also spoke out Tuesday.
