Aletta Rose

“Teef (B*tch), say hello to Connie for me.”

This was the chilling remark uttered by murder-accused Aletta Rose as she turned her attention to the media after a dramatic appearance in the Bellville Magistrate’s Court this morning.

Rose, 63, who is accused of murdering and dismembering her 79-year-old sister, Constance “Connie” Scholtz, in March this year, did not spare the court a moment of drama from the time she stepped inside.

As members of the media recorded her arrival in court, Rose turned her back, looked through her fingers and demanded to know who had given “these people” permission to record her.
