Will we ever know the truth about who or how the hiding place of the perhaps most famous Jewish teenager Anne Frank was disclosed to the Nazis?
"... The man identified by a cold-case team that has been working for six years to identify the persons responsible for the discovery of the Franks by Nazi authorities in occupied Amsterdam was Arnold van den Bergh, a notary and a member of the Jewish Council, which the Nazis established to better control Dutch Jews.
The accusation is outlined in “The Betrayal of Anne Frank,” a book published Monday [1/18/2022] by the Canadian author Rosemary Sullivan. ..."
The full statement by the Anne Frank House:
"Jan. 17, 2022 — Since 2017 Proditione Media has been working on a production – ‘Cold Case Diary’ – in which an investigation led by retired FBI agent Vince Pankoke is carried out into the arrest of Anne Frank and the other people in hiding in the Secret Annex.
The book The Betrayal of Anne Frank by Rosemary Sullivan, which will be published on 18 January, reports on the investigation and the cold case team’s conclusions.The background to and events of the arrest of Anne Frank are questions that continue to occupy many people’s minds. The Anne Frank House was not involved in the cold case investigation, but it did share its archives and museum with the team, as well as its own 2016 investigation into the arrest of the people in hiding.The Anne Frank House is impressed by the work that the cold case team has carried out. The investigation was carefully set up and performed, and the book The Betrayal of Anne Frank reports on it in an engaging and readable way."
