We received a report regarding a missing person, Johannes Hendrik Becker (Dehan), aged 32. He was last seen driving a red 1999 Toyota Corolla with registration CRJ259FS, having gone missing from Tweespruit on 16/01/2025. We received information that he visited Chillax in Langenhoven Park the previous night.
Further information indicated he was at a townhouse complex in Langenhoven Park around 11:00 a.m., where he left in a hurry. Responders searched the Langenhoven Park area and Chillax but found no trace of him. Information confirmed he remained in Bloemfontein. The family has suggested checking the Casino as well. However, these efforts have yielded no results. The Casino’s security team was notified and they will contact us if he is on the premises.
Information was received thathe was spotted at 08:00 this morning in Wilgehof. Upon further investigation, it was discovered that Becker was searching for a woman, accompanied by another male. By 09:00, the vehicle was located in Fichardt Park. Responders are currently combing through Wilgehof and Fichardt Park, focusing on known hotspots while awaiting new leads.
An investigator searched Becker’s former workplace on a farm in the Tweespruit district but found no clues. The investigation team has released the family for the night, promising to reach out should any leads arise from camera footage.

The Missing Person Task Team reports no significant developments from last night. A tip from a responder in Dealesville suggested that Becker was there, intending to visit a restaurant for food and to obtain gasoline money to return to Bloemfontein.
Dehan Becker was found safe 13:07.
NCA extends its gratitude to all participants for their contributions to the search efforts.
