The director of the Anne Frank House, Ronald Leopold, in Amsterdam on Monday: THE DIRECTOR OF THE ANNE FRANK HOUSE, RONALD LEOPOLD: “First of all, I think that this new theory not only provides us with information about what happened here on April 4th. August 1944, but also about the behavior of people, the decisions they make in very difficult times, and I think that the information that the team found gives us insights into ourselves to stay under very difficult circumstances.” As various Dutch media reports, citing an international cold case team, the assumption about the traitor is “very likely”. An FBI investigator said that this theory has a probability of more than 85 percent. The team had for six years investigated the treason using the latest techniques. The Amsterdam notary’s name as a suspect is not new. He was already on a list of possible traitors. Van den Berg had connections to high-ranking German officials. The team of experts believe that van den Bergh was in possession of a list with the names of Jews in hiding, which he was supposed to use as “life insurance” in an emergency. It is said that he tried to save himself and his family with the betrayal of those in hiding in the Secret Annex. Van den Bergh was also Jewish. Over the past decades there have been repeated theories about the betrayal of Anne Frank and the seven other people in hiding. The number of suspects is in the double digits. But research has never been so thorough. In international parlance, new police investigations into previously unsolved criminal cases are referred to as a “cold case”.
