Who: "Not that he was ignorant who had touched him," says Epiphanius, "but that he might not be himself the divulger of the miracle, and that the woman, hearing the question, and drawing near, might testify the singular benefit she had received, and that, in consequence of her declaration, she might presently hear from his lips, that her faith had saved her; and by this means, others might be excited to come and be healed of their disorders."
the multitude: Luke 9:13, Mark 5:30-32

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Jesus said, who touched me?.... This he said, not as ignorant of the person that had done it, but in order to discover her to the people, and the cure she had received, as well as her faith; :-.

Peter, and they that were with him; the rest of the disciples, who were in company together, as appears from Mark 5:31

Mark 5:31- :.
