Friends and colleagues of Kazakh rapper Darkhan Zhumabek, known under the pseudonym Kislо-Sladky, are raising alarm on social media, saying the singer has gone missing in Thailand. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Kursiv Media.
The possible disappearance of the artist was reported by music video director Parasat.top. According to him, the rapper was supposed to fly from Phuket to Bangkok in the morning. The clipmaker stated that the film crew was already preparing for work, but the artist never arrived at the appointed place and then stopped answering calls.
"All his phones are switched off. He said he might have gone to Malaysia. We rented a hotel here, rented equipment, waited for him," he said.
The director said he intends to contact the immigration police and, if necessary, go to the border to clarify the circumstances.
