About Frans Pieter Rossouw
Frans Roussouw (1935 - 1988)
Brief overview:
On 20th March 1998, Frans (63) was stabbed to death, and his wife, Tokkie (64), assaulted by two male youths armed with knives while watching TV at their farmhouse Modderfontein. The front door was open because it was hot and they were expecting guests. The perpetrators, allegedly aged between 16 and 20, walked through the door and told Frans they wanted weapons and money. He stood up to open the safe in the bedroom, and one of the youths lunged forward and stabbed him in the heart and stomach. The police commented: “The irony is he wanted to cooperate, yet they still stabbed him.” The two killers tied Tokkie to a chair with copper wire. They stole a double gauge shotgun, a .22 rifle and a 9mm pistol.
