Students are missing from the beginning of 2024

On February 5, authorities found the body of Sameer Kamath, a 23-year-old Indian-American Purdue University student, in an Indiana nature preserve.
On February 2, attackers outside a restaurant in Washington inflicted potentially fatal injuries on Vivek Taneja, a 41-year-old IT professional of Indian descent, making him the sixth Indian or Indian-American fatality in the US in recent months.
