Criselda Dudumashe reveals details of her nightmare with a stalker

The man is said to have harassed Criselda with numerous 'please call me' SMSes and late-night calls.


TV and radio personality Criselda Dudumashe was allegedly stalked four years ago by a Rustenburg man who claimed to be her long-lost son, Sunday World reports.

According to the tabloid, Criselda said it was difficult for her to bolster her security because her work involves working and interacting with people as a public figure.

In June last year, the SA FM presenter reportedly opened a criminal complaints of intimidation, harassment and defamation of character at the Midrand police station after she claimed that the man was threatening to show up at her home unannounced.

The man had been harassing her with numerous “please call me” SMSes and late-night calls.

Criselda added that the man also sent her messages asking for the identity of his father because he claimed she had abandoned him when he was a kid.

“But I’m now careful about being too friendly to a person I don’t know,” Criselda said.
