FBI Agent Retired Vince Pankok (Vince pankoke) reopened the unsolved case of who could have given the Gestapo the place where 15 was a Jewish girl, Anna Frank, and her family from 1942 to 1944 a year, during the German occupation of the Netherlands. You can monitor the progress of the investigation. Online project writes TJournal.

I worked under the cover of the FBI and could not advertise my work. I have now begun an investigation into the arrest and possible betrayal of Anne Frank, and I can share my work with those I love. In particular - with the daughter of Kate. I will make voice recordings and keep a diary. She was growing up, not knowing what work I had done, and now I am glad that I can talk about every step in the new business.

The project team includes historians, psychologists, criminologists, portraits of the perpetrator, forensic scientists and analysts. To analyze a large amount of information about the case, they use artificial intelligence. This will make it possible to see "connections invisible to the naked eye." The required documents will be provided by the National Archives of the Netherlands, the American Institute for the Study of War, the Amsterdam Municipal Archives, the Anne Frank Foundation, the Memorial Museum of Holocaust Victims in the USA and the National Archives of the USA. years after finding the place where Frank and her family were hiding.

As noted edition The GuardianThe project team decided to recreate the events of the day of the arrest of Frank and her family. Now the former founder of the FBI's behaviourism unit, Roger Depyu (Roger depue) analyzes the testimony of witnesses.

Pankok said that he discovered new documents relating to Frank only after the declassification of documents from the National Archives of the United States after the war. The German secret services have kept numerous records of arrests, but it was believed that the documents about the Frank family were destroyed during the bombing of Great Britain in 1944 year.

I spent a lot of time in the National Archives of the United States and found documents there that I was told did not exist. Some of them were damaged by water or fire, and they were written by the German stationery military, so it would take time to figure them out. But we found the names of the Jews arrested after their arrest, and the names of the Gestapo agents who lived in Amsterdam, and find the connection between them.

Pankok noted that “he is not trying to point a finger at someone or punish him”. According to him, he only wants to reveal the last thing in his career. As noted The GuardianThe Anne Frank House Museum in Amsterdam also supported the investigation. According to the executive director of the museum, Ronald Leopold, the museum is interested in the results of the new investigation, since "for decades, nothing has been found to be convincing." In December, 2016, the museum published a study suggesting that her family was discovered by chance, and not given away. Scientists believe that there is no evidence. After his father Frank Otto returned from Auschwitz in 1945, he found out that his entire family and people hiding with them had died in camps in Germany and occupied Poland. The Otto family was hiding in a shelter built by employees of a jam-making company where he worked. He suspected that Wilhelm van Maarin, a warehouse worker, had issued their location (Wilhelm van maaren). In 1948 and 1963, the Dutch police investigated, but did not confirm his involvement. The police were later criticized for testing the version with only one suspect. According to Pankok, this cannot be called an investigation - he said that he was studying the documents and he constantly had questions.

In 2003, the Dutch Institute for Military Documentation examined two other suspects, but concluded that it was impossible to recover the events of that time. One of the initiators of the project, director These Baens (Thijs bayens) said The Guardianthat at least 30 names of possible suspects are known today, but Pankok decided to start from scratch.

Many of the entourage of the family of Frank is in the police documents about previous investigations - they were called in for questioning. We have detailed reports about this.

Theiss Baens, one of the project initiators
Diary of Anne Frank published in 1947 year, with the assistance of her father. Since then, it has been translated into 67 languages ​​and sold in more than 30 millions of copies. In Russian, the diary first appeared in 1960 in the translation of Rita Reit-Kovaleva. Frank kept a diary from 14 June 1942 of the year to 1 of August 1944 of the year during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. She addressed most of the recordings to Kitty’s fictional friend and told her what happened every day to her and other inhabitants of the shelter. From 1944, Anna began to replace the names of her neighbors with fictional characters. Her father Otto completed the original version of the recordings. In 1945, Anna Frank died of typhus in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp - she was 15 years old.
