There were atleast three Police officers involved in the raid and arrest;

On 4th August 1944 Police officers discovered eight people in hiding they were arrested along with two of the helpers. Amoung those captured was Anne Frank , a 15-year-old schoolgirl who had spent over two years living in the cramped safehouse with her parents and older sister.

Betrayal and the arrest

Anne's last Diary entry was on August 1 ,1944. Three days later the secret annex was discovered by the GESPTAPO who was acting on a tip from a Dutch informer. It is not yet confirmed who gave them the tip but there are numerouse articles and books written about this house arrest and how it went down .

THE ARREST

What Happened To Them After The Arrest?

If By Who And Why?

Were They Betrayed ?

Yet Remains A Mystery

Even after 75 years of research with modern technology yet there is no evidence that The Franks were betrayed , even if they were there is no definite identity of the Snitch.

A long-theory proposed is that a new employee at Otto Frank's buisness , Willem Van Maaren , tipped off the Nazis.

Over the years , more than 30 individuals have been suspected of betraying Frank and her family and friends.

THE BETRAYAL

This is a mystery that many many people seek answers to, unfortunately it is not certain as nothing is brought forward except for theories , so without evidence it is uncertain how The Nazi's got information about The Secret Annex.

However it seemed that Otto Frank knew the name of the traitor but he never revealed , Because his main objective was to publish his daughter's Diary.

But in 2002 it was revealed that one of Otto Frank's friends , Tonny Ahler was the traitor. But yet again there was no evidence to prove this ''theory'' as well .

Peter Van Pels

It is reported that the whole Van Pels family died as well , but in different concentration camps.

Where they suffered due to many events.
