A six-year cold case investigation into the betrayal of Anne Frank has identified a surprising suspect in the mystery of how the Nazis found the hiding place of the famous diarist in 1944. READ:

Anne and seven other Jews were discovered by the Nazis on Aug. 4 of that year, after they had hid for nearly two years in a secret annex above a canal-side warehouse in Amsterdam. All were deported and Anne died in the Bergen Belsen camp at age 15.

Mr. Van Twisk said only four out of initial 32 names remained following the research, with Mr. Van den Bergh the lead suspect. Otto “had been in Auschwitz,” Mr. Van Twisk said. “He knew that people in difficult situations sometimes do things that cannot be morally justified.” He questioned the centrality of the anonymous note in the arguments for Mr. Van den Bergh’s responsibility and said the team made assumptions about wartime Amsterdam Jewish institutions that are not supported by other historical research.

The Anne Frank House Foundation was not involved in the cold case investigation but shared information from its archives to assist.
