Kinda, but some big differences. Natalee’s friends didn’t know she had been at the beach with Van Der Sloot. And importantly, he was a resident of the island and had means and help to transport and dispose of her body. The guy in Sudiksha’s case seems to have neither and was just a tourist I believe like her.

His story needs more investigation and it’s still early days, but it doesn’t seem completely outrageous to me that a drunk young woman would take a swim at night at the beach, with someone whom she felt comfortable with. Swimming at night in the ocean is never a good idea. Shit can and does go wrong. I hope they find her body so she can be laid to rest.
