A man has pleaded not guilty to murdering missing Perth mother Rebecca Anne Delalande almost two decades ago.
Chris Blennerhassett, 46, faced Stirling Gardens Magistrates Court via video link from prison on Wednesday and will appear in the West Australian Supreme Court on June 10.
Ms Delalande was aged 23 when she was last seen at a Seville Grove home on November 5, 2001.

Her family had infrequent contact with her and believed she had moved interstate to start a new life.
Detectives only learnt she was missing in late 2017 while investigating an unrelated matter.
