The mother of a 2-month-old infant was killed in the Red Light District of Amsterdam, and the Dutch authorities made a last attempt in November to reveal the identity of the murderer. They created the life-size hologram of the 19-year-old woman reaching out for help. It seems it rang a bell in the prison of Szeged where Csaba Dér, the butcher of Csantavér, wrote to the Dutch authorities that he knew the murderer of the young Hungarian woman working as a prostitute in Amsterdam until the terrible night of 19 February 2009. Read more about the bloodcurdling details in our article below.
The butcher of Csantavér, Csaba Dér, remembers
We detailed HERE how the Dutch police would like to solve a 15-year-old mystery case involving the brutal murder of a Hungarian prostitute. In a desperate move, they created the life-size hologram of Bernadett Szabó (Betty), being only 19 when her life was violently ended with 70 stabs.
Dutch authorities hoped somebody would remember something helpful to find the murderer and solve the case. They also offered a EUR 30,000 reward. And it seems they were successful.
Csaba Dér, the butcher of Csantavér, serving his life sentence in the Szeged prison, wrote an 11-page-long letter to the Dutch authorities revealing the details. His lawyer told Blikk that, in the letter, he named the perpetrator.
According to Telex, he wrote he executed the perpetrator, a Croatian gangster, whom he shot in a local restaurant. Based on Mr Dér’s lawyer, Krisztián Gulyás, he did so to protect his life as a preventive action. But he already knew by then that the man had murdered a woman. He learned that information from an arms dealer from whom he bought his pistol before the homicide.
The Croatian gangster killed the woman with 70 stabs
Mr Dér got a life sentence for executing a Dutch man in the Netherlands in 2018 with a headshot and a Hungarian drug dealer in Budapest later.
Csaba Dér in Amsterdam:
Telex wrote he would offer the award of the Dutch authorities to charity, but he wanted to negotiate with them. He said Betty’s murderer was a ladykiller who all feared in Amsterdam back then. He liked to torture and beat women. He was very violent with women, humiliated sex workers, and probably killed the Hungarian woman because she asked him to behave.
Csaba Dér was put together with the murderer of a 36-year-old mother, whom he killed while jogging in Soroksár in 2013. Dér beat Szilveszter Rakovec in the cell for what he did. Dér’s lawyer said he could not bear femicide and people who killed women.
