Mduduzi’s employer confirmed that he did not report for duty on the day he went missing. This absence was highly unusual, as he was known to be dependable and punctual.
At the time of his disappearance, Mduduzi was wearing his Shell work uniform, consisting of a white long-sleeved shirt with the Shell logo and long grey trousers. This detail is considered important, as it may help members of the public identify him if he were seen traveling through Midrand, Ivory Park, or surrounding areas.
No confirmed sightings have been reported since that morning.

An information line has been made available for anyone who may have seen Mduduzi Khumalo or has information about his movements on the morning of 29 December 2025. Authorities have emphasized that even small details can assist in tracing missing persons, especially in the early stages of an investigation.

Family and Work Colleagues Fear for the Safety of Missing Midrand Man
Family members say Mduduzi’s disappearance is deeply distressing and completely out of character. They have not been able to reach him by phone, and there has been no activity suggesting he left voluntarily.
A colleague from the Rivonia Shell garage said the concern was immediate when Mduduzi did not arrive for work.
“He always communicates. When he did not show up and could not be reached, we knew this was serious,” the colleague said.
The family has appealed for privacy while asking the public to help share verified information.
