There has been speculation, mostly kicked off by Reddit that missing Ivy League student Sunil Tripathi could be involved in the Boston bombing. He went missing last month without a trace. The FBI became involved in the case, even though it was a presumed suicide.
Tripathi was a philosophy major at Brown University, not far from Boston, where the search expanded to. His father is a rich software engineer.
Right after he went missing, explosives were found near Brown University and destroyed in a controlled detonation. No one had been found behind it.
The first incident was reported at 8:34 p.m. on March 12. Police and fire personnel responded to the area of Pine Street and Tower Hill Drive. Witnesses at the nearby Target store on Washington Street reported seeing a bright flash and hearing two explosions from that area.
Several unexploded devices were found at the scene and later detonated under secure conditions by the State Police Bomb Squad.
The second incident was a few days later at 7:49 p.m. on March 15. The second incident was near the first, in the area of Hearthstone and Fieldstone lanes. The area was searched but no explosives were found.”
Can’t be sure of course, but Sunil Tripathi sounds more like a Hindu name.

Police and volunteers searching for a missing Brown University student are hoping that new surveillance footage from the time of his disappearance will help them locate the 22-year-old man.
Sunil Tripathi vanished without a trace on the morning of March 16 shortly after walking out of his apartment in Radnor, Pennsylvania, leaving his cell phone and wallet behind.
His family and friends have spent the past two weeks canvassing the neighborhood where he was last seen and handing out leaflets asking passersby for help in finding the 22-year-old philosophy major.
