A 29-year-old man named Dean De Graef was last seen on October 5 at Club Lima, a nightclub in Antwerp. He was spotted inside the club around 2:30 AM, but after that, he disappeared.

What happened to Dean De Graef?

According to Kristof Aerts, a spokesperson for the Antwerp public prosecutor’s office, the situation is very worrying since there is still no sign of Dean. Despite thorough search efforts, authorities have not found any clues about his whereabouts or what happened after he was last seen at Club Lima. This ongoing investigation has raised fears in the community and sparked questions about what might have occurred.

One concerning possibility being investigated is that Dean may have accidentally fallen into a dock or the Scheldt River. Because Club Lima is near the waterfront in Antwerp, authorities are looking into this. Divers and search teams are likely searching the nearby waters, and investigators are collecting information from witnesses. As the search continues, the chance of an accident has not been ruled out.

Since Dean was last seen at the disco, no one has found any sign of him. Authorities are hoping to get tips from anyone who might have spotted him. They are also checking camera footage to see where he went. Dean is 5’1″ tall and usually wears his blond dreadlocks in a bun. When he disappeared, he was in black skinny jeans with holes, a black hoodie, and DC skate shoes. People can also find the search notice on the federal police website.
