Search for missing DJ Touch

POPULAR wheel spinner, content creator and videographer, Nyasha Tigere (35), popularly known as DJ Touch has been missing since February 12.

Police and his family have launched a search for the talented disc-spinner after he last communicated on February 12. Nyasha’s mother, Spiwe Tigere said her son’s phone is not reachable. She said they tried to contact his friends, fellow DJs and artistes to no avail.

“A few days prior to his missing, we travelled to Rusape for a relative’s funeral. I called him to join us at the funeral and he promised to do so. We expected him to be at the funeral, but he later told me that he could not attend as he was busy in a recording session with a musician. I called him the following day, but he did not respond. He later texted saying he was busy in the studio and he would return my call later.

“We did not panic as he would sometimes spend a day or two without coming home doing some recording sessions. We trusted that everything was good. After spending three days without coming home in Dangamvura, we started panicking. We tried calling him, but his phone was not reachable. We made a police report in March.

“We even visited Victoria Chitepo Provincial Hospital as well as their mortuary among other places in search of him. We decided to turn to the social media.

“We checked with his friends, fellow DJs and musicians to no avail. We now pin our hope in God as we pray that we will see him again. We are extremely worried,” she said. Nyasha is 1.78 metres tall and weighs 87kg. He is dark in complexion.

Tigere reported the matter at Mutare Central Police Station, under reference number IR 471/24.

Acting Manicaland provincial police spokesperson, Assistant Inspector Wiseman Chinyoka appealed to members of the public with information pertaining the whereabouts of the videographer to contact their nearest police station.
